Some people believe that it was invented in China in the ninth century, but there is no concrete evidence to support this claim. In any case, the game of bingo probably began to gain popularity in Europe and North America in the nineteenth century.<\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"btrs-related-posts-card\">\n                                    <h3 id=\"when-was-the-bingo-invented\" class=\"btrs-related-posts__title\">\n                        <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bingocardtemplate.org\/in-depth\/when-was-the-bingo-invented\/\">\n                            When Was the Bingo Invented?                        <\/a>\n                    <\/h3>\n                                                    <div class=\"btrs-related-posts__content\">The history of bingo is complex, but can be traced back to the early 1800s. At this time, people would often play games like craps and poker for entertainment. One player would make a guess as to the next number in a sequence, and if they were correct, they would win a prize.<\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"btrs-related-posts-card\">\n                                    <h3 id=\"when-was-bingo-invented\" class=\"btrs-related-posts__title\">\n                        <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bingocardtemplate.org\/in-depth\/when-was-bingo-invented\/\">\n                            When Was Bingo Invented?                        <\/a>\n                    <\/h3>\n                                                    <div class=\"btrs-related-posts__content\">Bingo was invented in the early 1800s. It is believed to have been created by a Catholic priest, Father Charles Edward Monro.

It wasn&#8217;t until the early 1900s that it began to be popular in the United States.
