Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania State Dart Tournament
Mechanicsburg, PA( by the state capital of Harrisburg) once again hosted the eastern nation’ s soft tip dart players. Sponsored by the PA Amusement & Music Machine( PAMMA) operators, the annual pre- Thanksgiving week end event grew again this year. Cash prizes totaled just under $ 20,000 for the three day event. With 1,200 entries, the Arachnid team of Brad Boe and Bob Wiles led the staff of Johnny Lee, Chris, and Marsha as chart masters( everyone knows the chart masters do all the work while Brad and Bob Shmooze the host operators). The Tournament featured four separate“ A-B” events to allow the“ recreational players” to have as much fun as the serious“ A” players.
The annual gathering is the major fund raiser for the operator group of PAMMA. There were 12 different companies that sent their player’ s stats to the Tournament Co-Director Dave Warner, who is responsible for the“ A-B” splits. Tournament Co-director Bill Fanasy marshals his staff of PA operators to insure all the players have the greatest
weekend of the dart season. Trophy plaques were awarded for each of the 15 events. PAMMA was pleased to have 10 % new faces this year and welcomes dart players of all skill levels to the PAMMA 2018 tournament that will be back to the Park Inn on November 16-18, 2018, the weekend before Thanksgiving.
