The energy at the World Darts Championship is next-level

Out of all the sports, I would've never suspected darts to be this energetic.

But today the internet greeted me with this scene from the World Darts Championship in London, which featured a 9-darter, or a perfect game to 501. This is accomplished by hitting the triple 20 seven times, the triple 19 once, and then the double 12.

Check this out, because Christian Kist executes it to perfection:

And the crowd goes wild!!

Wilder than I'd ever expect from a darts tournament!

I gotta see that crowd reaction again:

And I love this part of the story:

The tide then turned against Kist, who ended up losing his first-round match 3-1. But he was totally unaware of the £60,000 bonus prize which came with his accomplishment and undoubtedly lifted his spirits after being dumped out of the tournament.

Jomboy, as always, asking all the right questions:

Must be a European thing, but these people love themselves some darts!
