This Is A Thing? Really?

The Jesus-looking dude?
Not here. Check below.

Ran across a great story a couple of weeks back where a Jesus-looking dude (J-LD from now on) got tossed out of a darts tournament for looking too much like Jesus thus sending the drunken crowd into a frenzy of chants, taunts and heckling to the point of distracting the professional dart players, Phil "The Power" Taylor and Kim "The Hurricane" Huybrechts. Here are the videos of J-LD getting the boot:

First they sang, "Stand Up If You Love Jesus"

Then to the chants of "Jesus. Jesus. Jesus."
Elvis left the building.

Read the J-LD story here. When we read that the crowd numbered over 4000 it got us wondering what in the Wide, Wide World of Sports was up with professional dart tournaments and what in the hell would possess that many someones to pay good money to watch a couple of fat dudes toss darts. And, holy hell! We found out this darts thing is huge!  HUGE!

Here's Phil "The Power" Taylor's walkon.
Do they also talk sh*t like wrestlers do?
God! We hope so! Though we haven't found any video of it yet.

A modern era record crowd of over 9500 are whipped into a
frenzy at Dublin's O2 Arena at a Premier League of Darts event.

It's like a fu*king WWE event! Dart tournaments + 80oz pitchers of beer = bored drunks and we guess um, fun? It does look like everyone is having a really, really good time and maybe it's not just the beer. So good on them! Next up? The Premier League of JARTS!!!

Beer and large, metal darts!
What could ever go wrong?!

As kids we use to throw them over the house to each other.
You learn fear fast when you see
one of these bastards screaming down at you.

 Maybe that's why they banned them.
