The History of Bingo

The game of bingo has been around in different forms for many years.In 1530 a lottery know as "Lo Giuoco del Lotto D'Italia," was played. This lottery still exists and is still played every Saturday. The game took off and in the late 70`s the french were joing in with there own version called "Le Lotto". It was a game for the wealthy to enjoy. The North Americans were familiar in 1929. The dealer would select the numbers from a cigar box and the players would mark off each number with a bean. When they had all the numbers they would call out `beano´. One day a New York toy salesman Edwin S. Lowe heard someone by mistake called out bingo and decided to rename the game

After Edwin changed the name he then decided to hire a math professor, Carl Leffler, to help him increase the number of combinations in bingo cards. It is said that by 1930, Leffler had invented 6,000 combinations of bingo cards. Word has it that his work was too much for him and he ended his days as an insane professor.

By 1934, an estimated 10,000 bingo games were played weekly, and today more than $70 million dollars are spent on bingo each week in North America alone.
