There was a guy who used to drink in a pub that I used to play darts for about 10 or so years ago. He used to tell a story about a game of darts he had once with a guy after a few too many beers. Apparently his opponent took too long to retrieve his darts and ended up getting one stuck in the back of his hand....ouch!!

I don't have any photos like you all, but I do have some stories to tell over the years. The first was a bounce out from a soft tip sticking me in the foot while playing in sandals. Hurt like hell, I remember looking down at the dart just as it fell over in my foot and tipped up the skin.
Was playing in a bar where two non dart playing knuckleheads were trying to catch their bounce outs. They thought that if you caught it before it hit the floor you can re-throw it. This ended with a dart sticking out of one of the numb-skulls palm. It very quickly formed a large bruise
Played in one tournament where the chalker leaned over, just as the player at the line released his 2nd throw to see the score and was stuck in the back of the head. Made a really odd thud sound...
I had one flight fly off my dart as I threw. Was throwing at 20's but it stuck in shaft first into the triple 19. I was dismayed to learn it did not count as the point had to make the scoring contact. This had to go to a rulling.

The thing I like about Phase 5 stems is no robin-hooding. But I did not expect this to happen. Gave me a good laugh, though.

Well yesterday I almost posted a '197' score on the 'shoot 100 darts at the 20' competition. ..and yes I DID score 197...but only because I shot 300 darts. Ten sets of ten only works if you throw one dart each go....
