    Its a sport played mainly in the UK, NZ and Oz however it is becoming popular in the US.

    Interest is growing in the US. The US **** ***** association use the tagline "In what other sports can a 75 year old beat a 25 year old?"

    My father had an addiator. He carried it with him for years, used it so much he wore the numbers off the face. He loved stuff like that.
