Bus darts

Now, here's an idea for a (real-life, not forum) game.
Two players stand by the side of a road which has plenty of different buses along it and each starts with a score of 301 or 501.
The first player calls out the route numbers of the first three buses he sees. If a number is less than 21, or is 25 ("outer bull") or 50 ("inner bull"), that number gets deducted from the player's score. Any other buses count as missing the board.
If two or three buses with the same route numbers (less than 21) arrive consecutively, these count as "doubles" or "trebles" and the player gets to count an extra bus (or two) as he has not used up all three "darts".
As in normal darts, players must finish on a double and can go "bust".
Obviously the game should be played on the Number 1 bus route!
