Yes. Some of the greatest athletes in the world can be found on the pro darts tour.

to me personally the physical/athletic part is too minor, it's more of a game.

Pic related is a sport, too, if darts is

Completely agree

>>77228782
not really

its interesting at times but isnt a sport since you hardly have any influence on your opponent and its not physically demanding
>>
>>77229401
They spend up to ten hours every single day throwing darts at a board, not gonna be the fittest guys around desu

>someone who has never been in a darts competition
>its not physically demanding
once youve been to an all day darts tourney youll change ur mind, you wont be losing weight but by the end of the day your arm will be ready to fall off, your knees will hurt like shit, and youll have some back pain for a day or 2.

which is the closest to a sport?
darts

poker
vidya games

Just what

Andy Fordham is lucky to still be alive with the shit he put his body through.
>>
>>77231786

Fordham's health has long been a concern. At one point he weighed 31 stone (197 kilograms, 434 lbs) and was in the habit of consuming 25 bottles of lager before going on stage to play.

And Ted Hankey had a stroke on stage.

>Hankey was then seen rubbing his left eye repeatedly and losing his balance, and Van Gerwen eventually won the match 5–0 with a 90 average. Afterwards, Hankey was accused by many of being inebriated on stage, but was initially diagnosed with a heavy chest infection which he claimed affected his synapses.[11] However, after further tests, two days later it was revealed that Hankey had suffered a stroke, had very high cholesterol and diabetes and needed six to eight weeks rest,
