Burglars, bullseyes, and bathtubs of wine: let’s play darts!

from The Upshot · host The Upshot

Darts was once a humble pub game where tubby punters hustled pensioners for pork scratchings. But in the 1970s, everything changed. As darts went prime time, a rabble of chain-smoking boozehounds were catapulted to a life of mega stardom, from bathtubs of wine to sex-starved American groupies. Laaaaaaaaaaadieeeeeessss and gentlemeeeeeeeeeeen. Let’s. Play. Darts.  With guest Ruth Husko.
