On Jan. 11, 1998,
Raymond van Barneveld managed to become world champion for the first time. On the iconic Lakeside stage, the Dutchman won 6-5 in sets from his then-rival Richie Burnett.
More than 25 years after winning his first world title,
Target Darts has created a beautiful tribute to the historic achievement of Van Barneveld, who became the first Dutchman to become world champion in darts.
Barney's darts manufacturer has released a new set of darts called RVB25, referring to the 25th anniversary of Van Barneveld's first world title.
The darts are packaged in very nice packaging, with a newspaper article printed on it. The packaging features a piece about the former postman's world title. A newspaper clipping is also printed on the flights of the dart. These darts are now on the shelves at most dart stores.
