Curious/Weird PDC Worlds Memories
As most of us are going to be unable to make it to Ally Pally this year, let's reminisce about the 13 stagings of the event since it moved to the Ally Pally.
Many curious, noteworthy moments....
- Colin Lloyd punching the dart board
- John Part not feeling the love from the wall of champions (and rightly so!)
- The lights going out on Nicholson's first round appearance (in more ways than one...)
- Hashimoto becoming a nobody to a crowd favourite
- Taylor & Barney's hand-shake kerfuffle after their semi-final
- 'Poker Face' Magnus Caris getting embroiled with the fans and missing multiple match darts against Steve Beaton
- Idiot invading the stage and lifting the trophy during the final between MVG & Anderson
- Kirchner's imaginary throw against Anderson
- Petri Korte's bizarre throwing action
- Chinese player Sun missing the board completely going for treble 19
- Dirk van Duijvenbode busting 180 by hitting a 180
- Steve Farmer busting 176 but hitting a 180 (the choo-choo action he did made it even more cringe...)
- Anderson's 3 treble 20's falling out of the board
- Barney & Bunting's cringeworthy mic-stealing after their quarter-final
- Wade's "I did it for England" interview after beating Seigo Asada
- Wasp attacking both Painter & Suljovic during their match
- Pipe having to use one of Walsh's darts
- Lloyd taking his shirt off and chucking it into the crowd
- Webster accidentally kicking Gurney
- Newton & Reyes starting a deciding leg without throwing for the bull first, then restarting
Any of these standout in your memories, and any others that I've omitted from this category?

That advert where they had Whitlock with his head in his hands when Taylor said "I be back"

Bob Anderson arriving to the stage with an actual horse, like a scene from Phoenix nights.

Re: Curious/Weird PDC Worlds Memories
A few odd memories;
Alan Tabern eating raw liver during his walk-on.
Kevin Painter sticking a dart into his japs eye while Paul Lim took out a shanghai finish.
Nathan Aspinall being accused of taking cocaine by a disgraced PDC marker.
John Henderson mistaking Dave Chisnall for a sausage.
Rigor Mortis setting in on Justin Pipe during his throw.
Denis Ovens decomposing on stage.
