This leg between Van Gerwen and Chisnall was the best of the tournament: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZXqPbwLbu3o

Funny to see Van Gerwen throwing 141 after Chisnall didn't got that 9-darter.

"Well, here we go, Anderson with the experience", but he managed to pull through thanks to the early success.

Yep, Anderson digged himself just too much of a hole to make a comeback. He actually started quite well in first set, but missed to check 18 when leading 2-0 in legs and went on to even lose the set. Recovered well in 2nd set, but after that it was all Price basically.
But as @Jackl87 said, it was well deserved, he was leading all statistical categories and Anderson was poor on the doubles with only 26.87% (Price 45.61%). I was mentioning above that Price probably wants it too much, but maybe it was Anderson not wanting it that much in the end having won the WC twice and generally not concentrating 100% on Darts no more.

Lets hope there will be spectators next edition again, I was missing those crazy pictures and the crazy atmosphere during the broadcast

I wasn't able to watch the final live, but according the reviews, the win of Price was well deserved. In just 7 years time, he switched from Rugby professional to become world champion darts, quite impressive!

If all goes well, next edition will be again with a crowd shouting, dancing and drinking all day long  .

Yeah, I heard it was a short turn around from his rugby career, well at least sort of short compared to how long some of these dart players have been playing.

I was actually rooting for Anderson to win it again after all of those commentators talked about him that he should quit and so on.
I also find the behaviour of Price pretty annoying most of the time but it seems to get better with that at least. He just celebrates now and leaves the opponent alone.
Price was just playing great today so he really deserved to win it.

I'd have to agree for the most part. I know he's caused some drama when losing before, and its always easier to be humble when you win, its when things don't go your way that people tend to let their character shine. Honestly, I know it brings a bit of drama to the game, but I'm not a big fan of the antics. We were discussing early how nice darts is to watch due to the more relaxing atmosphere, but Price has deviated from that in the past. Hopefully, now that hes a winner, he'll quite those antics in the future.
