Poll: Lawn Darts (aka Jarts) Hot or Not? Thoughts?

Post by game_player_s »

I'm going with "hot" for a few reasons.

- Fun to play with and potentially lethal, always a good mix.
- Banned from sale on Ebay.
- Federal government banned them from further production and importation.
- Surviving Jarts are authentically vintage. They've not been available in the U.S.A. market in thirty years.

Not hot.

-The potential for injury or death was not sufficiently balanced out by the fun and enjoyment of playing lawn darts with the sharp tipped (banned) darts
-soft tip darts have been available forever, in order to provide an item to replicate closely the lawn dart style of game. This takes away from the coolness of lawn darts as a vintage unavailable item or unavailable taboo game in my mind
-one could probably make very accurate replica sharp tipped lawn darts very easily with common materials. This also takes coolness and exclusivity away from the design.

Lawn darts also look like something the Brady Bunch would play.
