lawn dart
Banned backyard projectile
Lawn darts are large weighted darts thrown in an outdoor game, designed to stick point-first into grass.
Players toss them toward a target ring on the ground.
The original metal-tipped versions were banned in the United States and Canada after causing serious injuries and deaths, particularly among children.
Safer plastic versions remain available.
