The First Televised 300 Game Was Rolled by Jack Biondolillo on April 1, 1967
The First Televised 300 Game Was Rolled By Jack Biondolillo On April 1, 1967. On the second Saturday in August, National Bowling Day encourages everyone to set up the pins. Now go throw strikes! While bowling style games likely existed in ancient civilizations, we probably owe the modern game of bowling to Germany. Kegels were used much like batons for protection or sport. Participants would place the kegels at the end of an alley. Each person then rolled a stone, attempting to knock down the kegels. It was believed that by knocking down the kegel, their sins would be forgiven. Other lawn games such as bocce and petanque may also be precursors to bowling. One such bowling game was called ninepins. American literature ﬁrst mentions ninepins in Washington Irving’s Rip Van Winkle. Bowling began using a ball without holes. The bowler would place the ball between their legs and then slide on their stomach to push the ball towards the pins. “Knickerbockers” in New York is the ﬁrst indoor bowling alley, built in 1840. Bowling began as a 9 pin game. The game moved to the traditional 10 pins since the 9 pin game had been outlawed because of its link to gambling and drinking. It is still banned in every state other than Texas. Bowling, like many sports, attracted gamblers. As a result, the game came under the scrutiny of legislatures and city councils. In 1841, Connecticut passed a law prohibiting ninepin bowling alleys. Circumventing the law, alleys added one pin to the line-up. Very little about the game has changed since.

Estos juegos son: * El Hnefatafl, juego vikingo, con sus variantes. * Perros y Chacales, juego egipcio, que se ha encontrado también en Palestina, Mesopotamia y Asiria. * El Rithmomachy, "Juego de los Filósofos", jugado en la Edad Media, inventado en Alemania. * El Senet, juego también egipcio, que puede ser el antepasado del Backgammon. Perros y Chacales - Juegos de la Antigüedad y Edad Media Indice General | Volver Página 1 de 2 1.Su historia Este es un juego cuyo nombre y reglas también han sido olvidados entre las nieblas del pasado. Se conoce como el juego de los "Perros y Chacales". Sabemos de este juego por medio de un famoso tablero encontrado en una tumba egipcia. Pertenece a una familia de juegos llamada "juego de los treinta puntos" o "juego de los cincuenta y ocho agujeros". Se han descubierto muchos tableros o fichas de tableros en Egipto, como así también en Palestina, Mesopotamia y Asiria. Se ha encontrado un tablero muy lindo en la tumba de Reny-Seneb, de la XII dinastía, aprox. 1800 a.C. Este hermoso juego en ébano y marfil, tiene la forma de un pequeño mueble. El tablero es una caja de madera rectangular (de 15 x 10 cm.), puesto sobre cuatro patas de animal.
