kili,

In L.A., in a local Irish pub, darts was a favorite bar game, with guests
bringing customized sets of darts, very beautiful and exotic (real
feathers, balanced and such!

I don't remember darts at the Philly Irish pub. Maybe I didn't see the
whole place. My Irish wife, then, kept me out of trouble.

I was never good at darts.

Best,

Andy
Has real dartboard cabinet, with backwards numbers in places, chalkboarded
doors for scoring, and cheap plastic finned darts .
