response: I'm not sure. But, back to the scoring, if you manage 12 strikes in a row, you get the maximum score of 300.

history: I'm dying to learn how to bowl! All of my friends love it and I'm feeling left out! Oh, OK! Well, to start, bowling involves rolling a bowling ball toward some sort of target. The target being pins I guess! That's the extent of my knowledge! Do I have to knock them all down on my first try? If you do knock them down on the first try, that's called a strike. However, if you take two tries to knock them all down, that's called a spare. Oh good! I'll definitely need two chances!! How long has bowling been around?
knowledge: The maximum score is 300, which is achieved by getting 12 strikes in a row.
