Remember when no good BBQ would be complete without a drunken uncle pulling a Jart out of his leg and claiming it's just a flesh wound > There Back. Take your family back to the early 80's. Better than back to the future. Link Party Like it's 1980 again !
These were so fun when I was a kid, but $49 for this?? Please.

the original jarts had a sharper tip than even the safety tip showin in the picture they had winds on them and were razor sharp ..they may have been a knockoff brand ..i used em in the late 60's to early 70's

*shiver* I don't even want to think about my drunken uncle's favorite game...fishing for change in his pants pocket!
Green for you OP for reminding me of these. I did have a set in early 80's; did bring them out combined with an adult party; and did have somebody's uncle throw one up as high as he could manage (just to show off). It came down right in the middle of MY relatively new 1980 Mercury Cougar XR7 windshield. chuckling ... of course, the windshield had to be replaced.

Sliding Jarts? Jarts are essentially Lawn Darts...
JARTS are lawn darts. REGENT the company that made JARTS made a style that the fins could slide to the end of the shaft , the other style like the ones i have have a spacer from the end to the fins so the fins will spin but not slide.
Yeah, cornhole (har har, make all the jokes you want) is fun, but it's still quite different. I still have a set of Jarts, but they're really starting to show their age.

They are all sold out. I guess he only had a few sets. I'll have to keep looking .
