When it comes to playing darts, there are many different terms and phrases that are used to describe certain scores. One of these terms is "bed & breakfast," which refers to a score of 26 in a game of darts.
So, why is a score of 26 known as bed & breakfast? The answer lies in the way the score is made. In darts, a score of 26 is typically achieved by hitting a single 20 and a single 6 on the dartboard. The term "bed & breakfast" is said to have originated because a score of 26 is just enough to "make your bed" (the double bed) and then have "breakfast" (the single 6) the next morning.
While scoring a bed & breakfast may not be the most impressive feat in darts, it is still a fun and memorable score that many players aim for. It can also be a good way to poke fun at a friend or opponent who may have hit a low score during a game.
If you are interested in learning more about darts and different scoring terms, there are plenty of resources available online. Websites like Darts501 offer a wealth of information on the rules and terminology of darts, as well as tips for improving your game.

Happy darting!
