Most dart cabinets got a King's Head Pub and lodging logo. King's Head refers to King Henry the 8th. I learned this yesterday in the pub from my English friend Joe. Despite 7,5 hours of drinking beer, the following morning I remembered the story:
Henry VIII (28 June 1491 – 28 January 1547) was King of England from 21 April 1509 until his death. He was also Lord of Ireland (later King of Ireland) and claimant to the Kingdom of France. Henry was the second monarch of the House of Tudor, succeeding his father, Henry VII.
He married six wifes (Katherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves, Katherine Howard and Catherine Paar) and 2 of them (Anne Boleyn and Katherine Howard) got their head chopped off, charged for adultery.
