The game was originally an outdoor game until about 1840 and was popular with gamblers. Ninepins was originally an outdoor sport until about 1840. The state of Connecticut banned the game in 1841 to keep the gambling out of the game. In the end, indoor lane owners added one pin to their alleys to skirt the rules.
Clubs tried organizing and establishing set rules. Nevertheless, the American Bowling Congress didn't convene in 1895 at Beethoven Hall in New York City until 1895. The American Bowling Congress set a maximum score of 300 that still stands today. They also established other laws, such as lane length, widths, and distances between pins, in addition to pin distances.
