The game was originally an outdoor game until about 1840 and was popular with gamblers. In 1841, the state of Connecticut banned the game from being played out the gambling, in order to shut down the gaming. As a result, indoor lane owners added one pin to their alleys in an attempt to violate the rules.
Clubs tried organizing and establishing set rules. However, the American Bowling Congress didn't convene at Beethoven Hall in New York City until 1895. The American Bowling Congress set a maximum score of 300, which still stands today. In addition, they established other laws, such as lane length, widths, and distances between pins.
