Bowling is a sport that dates back to ancient Egypt.  In bowling the object of the game is to roll a ball down a flat surface and knock down as many pins as possible.  Today bowling is enjoyed by 95 million people in more than ninety different countries world wide.  In nine pin bowling a plastic ball is used and is smaller and lighter than ten pin bowling ball.  The real name for bowling is 10 pin bowling but in the US it is more commonly called bowling. A perfect score in bowling is 300 points.  The first established rules were first set in NYC. In Antarctica there are only two lanes out of the whole continent.
