Best Answer

In Washington Irving's "Rip Van Winkle," the game being played by the Wee Folk is called nine-pin. It's a variation of modern day Bowling, and at one time was the most popular bowling game in the United States. In the 1830's, the game was banned out of fears of organized crime and a diminishing work ethic. Today, only Texas offers both nine and ten pin bowling.
