Electronic dart board for $7.00 @ walmart
« on: February 10, 2004, 02:06:16 am »
I went to walmart the other day to find replacements darts for my electronic dart board.  I couldn't find a link to it, but on sunday they had an electric dartboard with darts for $7.00.  Where as the replacement kit(dart parts) was $5.98.  Well, I bought both.  The board is made by Sportcraft.  I couldn't find a link on there site either.

Can't go wrong for $7.00

Plus it takes batteries, good for a clean installation.

BTW.  Soft tip darts will still stick in the wall.

A guy at my work just bought an electronic dart board, but instead of those lame, plastic boards with all the premade holes in it, it's made of the same corky stuff that regular dart boards are made of.  And there doesn't seem to be a lame, plastic board underneath either, as the darts seem to stick in and stay exactly as they would in a non-electric board.

Really cool.  Best of both worlds.

Throwing sharp pointed objects while drunk probably isn't the smartest idea either hehe.

Probably safer to be throwing the darts when drunk then to be in the room with someone else who is drunk and throwing them.  I have a corkboard (but non-electronic) dartboard and have always been very happy with it.  I've never been to impressed with plastic darts and prefer the type that have metal tips.  Now, if I could only find where I put that dartboard at.   ;)

Yeah... I have a cork message board behind mine to catch most errant darts...
