Learning the Origins and History of Bingo

Learning the Origins and History of Bingo

The origin of the bingo game can be traced back to Italy circa 1530. The game expanded to other parts of the country such as France and Germany but it was not until it arrived in America that bingo became a hit game. Edwin Lowe, a New York toy salesman, introduced the game to his friends, and it is said that the practice of shouting “BINGO” first appeared. Afterward, Lowe was approached by a Catholic Priest from Pennsylvania to learn about the game and use it to raise funds for the church.

Currently, there are 60 million bingo players worldwide, which are mostly composed of older adults but are now slowly joined by the younger population.
