Inflatable dart board ?

My research school at ANU (RSISE) has on sale in the tea room, among cooking books, children's books and stuffed toys, an inflatable dart board going for about $10. Obviously not intended to be used with real darts (I suspect velcro is involved), this toy is clearly aimed at the kiddy-safe market. However, I can see this having some appeal to the university student living in a share house, perhaps as one of those crazy novelty items every self respecting student share house should have ...but then again ... the life expectancy of the inflatable dart board is unlikely to span much further than the next drunken get together, at which point the irresistible urge to throw real darts, just to see what happens, becomes all too much.
