Despite what his nickname might suggest, BullyBoy is known as a likeable guy who rarely steps out of line. Still, this time he couldn’t keep his frustration in check, and the dartboard bore the brunt of it — as seen in the footage, not everything stayed on the wall…
Earlier, in February 2024, Smith voiced his dissatisfaction with the conditions during Players Championship 2 in Wigan. After an early exit, he took to social media to complain about the high temperature in the venue, which he claimed had affected his performance.

Smith has also spoken openly about his tough childhood in St Helens, England, where many of his childhood friends ended up in prison. He sees darts as his salvation and emphasizes the importance of sport in his life.
Earlier this weekend, there was another outburst of anger on stage, this time involving a referee. Huw Ware was furious with a supporter in the crowd who couldn’t behave — and made sure the fan felt the consequences.
