Very few things in life are better than witnessing a 9 darter. It's a moment filled with pure ecstacy. Want to blow the roof off a building? Throw a 9 darter. Well, Luke Littler started today's quarterfinal match of the Bahrain Masters doing just that. Pandemonium followed. His opponent knew it over right then and there.

When the aliens invade and they have to decide whether to wipe us out or not, I want them to attend a live darts tournament and experience something like this. We'll be friends in no time. 

Not too bad for a 16 year old, huh? Youngest lad to ever throw a 9 darter in a tournament. The Chosen One indeed. 

If you're unfamiliar with The Nuke, check out my first blog on him when he burst onto the scene earlier this month. 

They did the quarters, semis, and finals all today and naturally Littler obliterated everyone in his path, even the GOAT Michael van Gerwen. 

Littler said he hadn't picked up a dart since being the runner up in the World Championships a few weeks ago. Now to be honest with you, I have no clue if continuously throwing darts or not has any positive/negative impact on you. Whatever Luke Littler decides to do is the correct decision in my mind. 

Clearly 16 and not a day older by the way. Don't ask him about his 401k because he doesn't have one.

Darts age you quick my friends. It's like the blog game. Nothing else to see here.

What a life this has to be for him. Picked up a quick $200k at the World Championships in early January. Another $20k now. He's playing darts for a living. Met his 21 year old girlfriend online while playing FIFA online. Dude is just living a dream. Luke Littler is Him. 

P.S. I'm concerned Jerry is gonna attempt a nine-darter as part of Jerry After Dark and lose all feeling in his arm while trying.
