"Bowling is an
activity in which players attempt to score points by rolling a
bowling ball along a flat surface either into objects called
pins or to get close to a target ball. There are many forms of
bowling, with one of the most recent being
ten-pin bowling and the earliest dating back to
ancient Egypt.
Other places where bowling was first seen were ancient
Finland
and
Yemen,
and in 300 A.D. in
Germany.
The first standardized rules were established in
New York City, on September 9, 1895. Today, bowling is enjoyed by 95
million people in more than ninety countries worldwide
and continues to grow through entertainment mediums such as video games
for home consoles and hand held devices."
