(Comment written before reading the rest of the thread just to be fair)

I believe this might have problems getting responses because a large number of people don’t even know one possible answer to them. I had to browse Wikipedia’s list of (tenpin) bowlers to find one name I actually recognized as I couldn’t come up with one off the top of my head. And darts variants? I didn’t know the actual rules for any dart game.

(Edit having read thread)

I was very close to giving that answer myself, but he wasn’t (to my knowledge) a professional.

52

did I win?

53

gonz, gonz, gonz…

Patience is a virtue!

Tomorrow, I hope. I have to take my Dad to the doctor, but I should be done by early afternoon.
