On April 8, 2008, Henry Gordy International Inc. recalled about 870,000 Fun ‘N Games Magnetic Dart Boards because small magnets at the ends of the darts can detach, and if swallowed, can attract each other in the intestines, causing an intestinal perforation hazard, which can be fatal.

Recalled Fun ‘N Games Magnetic Dart Boards have a black, green, blue, and white checkered design with a red bulls eye. They are about five-and-a-half inches wide, and were sold with two two-and-three-fourth-inch long magnetic darts that magnetically attract to the dart board.

Family Dollar stores nationwide exclusively sold the recalled Henry Gordy dart boards from September 2002 through March 2008 for about $1.

Consumers should take the recalled dart boards away from children. For a full refund, consumers should return them by first class mail to:

Henry Gordy International Inc. 809A Market Street Hermann, MO 65041
