Bingo can be traced back to a lottery game called "Lo Giuoco Code Loto",
played in Italy in 1530. By the 1700s you could find it maturing in
France where they were using playing cards, tokens and added the reading
out of numbers.
The 1800s saw bingo widely used in Germany for educational purposes, to
teach children spelling, animal names and multiplication tables.
At a carnival near Atlanta in 1929, Beano was being played with dried
beans, a rubber stamp and cardboard sheets. Edwin Lowe, was watching
this game and noticed how engaged the players were. The Carnival worker
had to kick the players out at 3 am. Lowe, took the idea with him to New
York where he introduced the game to his friends. He conducted bingo
games similar to the ones he had witnessed, using dried beans, a rubber
numbering stamp and card board. His friends loved the game. It is said
that one of his players made bingo history when he was so excited to
have won that he yelled out “Bingo” instead of “Beano."
The Lowe Bingo Game had two versions; the first a 12-card set for $1.00,
the second a $2.00 set with 24 cards. Bingo was a wild success.
By the 1940s Bingo games were all over the country. Lowe had many
competitors and all he asked was that they pay $1.00 a year to conduct
the games and of course to use the name Bingo.
