I cannot thank you enough. I never would have appreciated something this rare if you hadn’t made these videos. My first video from you was your visit to the world’s largest CEC. I became hooked on your videos and eventually became encouraged to find Animatronics near me. After you made your Darien and Tinley Park video a while back, I realized that there were stages near me. It seemed like the timing for that video was perfect too since my birthday was coming up. I treated myself and saw both stages. Those visits will always hold a special place in my heart. I’ve also visited the Gurnee and Crystal Lake locations, which contain a Studio C Beta and Alpha respectively. (Speaking of Gurnee! That location is amazing, it’s got the Ticket Blaster replacement test game and the old Ticket Blaster sign by the stage! Definitely recommend!) I am hoping to visit Springfield, IL and Milwaukee, WI in the future. I’m planning a trip up to Milwaukee to see the Horicon Marsh along with the stage this summer so I hope that comes to fruition because I don’t know if I’ll be able to plan another trip up-to Wisconsin in that area before the end of this year if my currently planned trip fails. Thankfully, Springfield has been saved so I am in no rush. (Shout out to all those who said Springfield as their stage to save on the survey! Don’t worry, I was one of you!) If Showbiz Pizza Wiki is telling the truth though, (which isn’t always the case) the bots at Springfield are being replaced which would stink since I have always wanted to see Creative Engineering bots in person but I guess it doesn’t matter as much now that the Rock-afire Explosion show at the Volo Auto Museum has finally been taken out of storage. Speaking of Volo, I visited the Auto Museum about a year ago to see King Kat and the Beagles and it did not disappoint. I’m hoping to go back there with the Rock-afire addition, but who knows. Unfortunately, I live near the Naperville, IL location so all we have to show is a CoL with no bot. Again, my gratitude for you cannot be expressed in words and please let me know when you visit the Crystal Lake, IL location. I know this is on a random video but I just recently made my Google Account. Thank you and to many more stage visits in the future!
Chris I had an update :The Chuck E. Cheese in Takoma park is now remodeled the grand opening is November 19 I am so sad it got remodeled they took the anamatronic but they kept the circle of lights stage
I stumbled across your channel looking at the pineville store to see what the animatronics looked like and I watched a handful of your videos and it’s so cool to see you talk SO passionately and give out cool little facts about every single piece you find in these chuck E. Cheese locations!! All across the country no less which is an INCREDIBLE feat!! I’m so glad there’s people out there documenting all the things in these CEC stores. Keep on rollin!! :)
Ahhhhh the memories. I know I mentioned this to you before, but you would have loved the Port Orange Florida store. (The first store I worked at.) We had a beautifully working Circle of Light stage with a Chuck bot. I was so proud to work there until Hurricane Ian wiped the store out. You would have loved it!
I thought most circles of lights stages were either without a bot or were 2.0. This is one of my favorite variants of studio C, glad to see that some are still around!
1:39 When you was entering the store, you're seeing chuck e. going back to his room. But anyways, It's nice to see this COL stage with the animatronic.
I Heared In Pinesville, They're Gonna Have Some Museum Set Up In The Little Area On The Left Side Of The Showroom Where All The Kiddie Rides Are They're Gonna Have Some Old Nostalgic Art Hanged Up There IDK What Kind Of Art They'll Have In There But I'm Extra Excited To See That
ngl this makes me miss going to chuck e. cheese back when i was a kid and when it was in its prime when all the characters were on stage and preforming i loved it so much so sad to see that most places have gotten rid of the stage and animatronics
Hi Chris! Sorry i was late lol, I always look forward to watching your videos though! I really hope I can come meet you in July but only time will tell! ❤🎉 May you have an amazing rest of your day! ^^
As much as we liked to knock on circles of light back then, they genuinely had a lot going for them (FAR superior to the plain video walls), even without the bots, and it’s a shame they stopped programming their lights!
@@SetsStreetsEats Oh yeah I have remember now but there's a location in illinois with a circls of lights witch still has a chuck bot nut he's not moving or maybe random ms the location is Melrose Mark IL
My local (La serena, Chile) still has a circle of lights with a bot (16 movements and also has that cage like the one you showed in your video!), sadly the international show also comes up with only random movements but the bot is in very bad shape and it can barely move because the kids find a way to throw things or just move it way too hard >:(! but at least the bot is still there! And the bot still has the avenger outfit and the avenger cap! And because is an international store, corporate doesnt really care if it recieves or not 2.0, so, gladly, we'll still have that store for years to come :D!
Small fact about this stage: Some may have two separate touch-sensitive LED-backlit wall on both side panels at the bottom of the TV. My local Chuck E. Cheese store, Harlingen, TX, has one of those.
There’s another location that still has a Chuck E. Cheese in the circle of lights which is in Salt Lake City Utah so when you go to Utah go check out the location that is in there and guess what there are no plans for a 2.0 in this location
A Chuck E. Bot at a Circle of Lights stage? Shocked he was still there truthfully. Making plans to go visit Northridge in a few weeks! 😆 Edit: How dare they not have the wall art with the throwback pin! Disappointing indeed
For any CEC stage/bot enthusiasts. I find it strange how the “Circle of Lights” stage was more popular than the epic looking Galaxy stage. Yeah it looks pretty, but dude. The Galaxy stage was so unique looking.

@@SetsStreetsEatsI’m coming to billycon to see u in July
U couldn’t have said to save my location in Catonsville but NO u let it get 2.0 it was the last one of my childhood 😢😭😭😭😭😭😭
Bro your acting like he works for corporate 💀
You could have also used hashtags or contact CEC that’s if they say Yes
3:30 I didn’t even know that
Chris I had an update :The Chuck E. Cheese in Takoma park is now remodeled the grand opening is November 19 I am so sad it got remodeled they took the anamatronic but they kept the circle of lights stage
Naples Florida also has one too. That’s definitely a pain in the butt to get to given it’s in southwest Florida though.
I didn’t know this store still had the stage, awesome!

Do you work At nip-I mean Naples Florida CEC

I went there last week and it was awesome!! 🤩
It’s a cool stage for real
I love circles of light
1:39 When you was entering the store, you're seeing chuck e. going back to his room. But anyways, It's nice to see this COL stage with the animatronic.
I Heared In Pinesville, They're Gonna Have Some Museum Set Up In The Little Area On The Left Side Of The Showroom
Where All The Kiddie Rides Are
They're Gonna Have Some Old Nostalgic Art Hanged Up There
IDK What Kind Of Art They'll Have In There But I'm Extra Excited To See That
Me too!
Nice Video Chris!
❤
That is one Rare Chuck 😎
Hey Chris Amarillo, Texas one stage is working again if you want to go to visit it working!
Honestly I visited there twice, so there's not a whole lot of reason for me to go do a third visit.
ngl this makes me miss going to chuck e. cheese back when i was a kid and when it was in its prime when all the characters were on stage and preforming i loved it so much so sad to see that most places have gotten rid of the stage and animatronics
Hi Chris! Sorry i was late lol, I always look forward to watching your videos though! I really hope I can come meet you in July but only time will tell! ❤🎉 May you have an amazing rest of your day! ^^
They have the generic Tower of Power. My question is where did it come from?
salt lake city, ut has one too, you should go check it out
So happy you were able to find it 🥺❤️
The walk around chuck had the avenger chuck shirt and the tokens in the coin pusher were izza time theatre.
That's what I thought, But the only pizza time theater coins I have actually say it on there. Cause they're from 1982.
@@SetsStreetsEats yes the front of the old ptt coins so in pizza we trust and smile america and the back says no cash value and 25 cent
I saw some photos of the store with tower of power, is it still there?
Wowww amazing Mr. Powers 💜💜💜💜
Great video! Will you be going to Naples Florida? They’ve got a 32m circle of lights Chuck bot
I have no current plans to but that can always change.
did anyone notice chuck was wearing his other shirt the walk around chuck
Napples fl has the last 32m col
there are 6 COL 16m shows in the united states and one of those is franchised, the one in kapolei, HI. 3 are international so a total of 9
Nice!!!! I like the COL with a Bot
Can you do gurnee il chuck e cheese because they have the studio c beta
As much as we liked to knock on circles of light back then, they genuinely had a lot going for them (FAR superior to the plain video walls), even without the bots, and it’s a shame they stopped programming their lights!
Wow!
There’s a few in McAllen like these
Yes
there are 11 cecs with cols that have bots left
I went there it’s cool
You should go to my local Kedzie IL
I already did last year.
@@SetsStreetsEats Oh yeah I have remember now but there's a location in illinois with a circls of lights witch still has a chuck bot nut he's not moving or maybe random ms the location is Melrose Mark IL
Those Smile America Tokens Could Date Back To The Early 80s. So That Means Those Tokens We're Once Used In A Ptt.
you should return to amarillo tx one
I heard McAllen tex Has 2 circlesOf lights stage and has the bot
This is my local
no way,welcome to Maryland!
My local (La serena, Chile) still has a circle of lights with a bot (16 movements and also has that cage like the one you showed in your video!), sadly the international show also comes up with only random movements but the bot is in very bad shape and it can barely move because the kids find a way to throw things or just move it way too hard >:(! but at least the bot is still there!

And because is an international store, corporate doesnt really care if it recieves or not 2.0, so, gladly, we'll still have that store for years to come :D!
You’re really making me want to go back to a CEC! Too bad all of the ones here are 2.0 😕
Dude you’re livin my dream job lmao
Pineville stages is staying
we already know this
Small fact about this stage: Some may have two separate touch-sensitive LED-backlit wall on both side panels at the bottom of the TV. My local Chuck E. Cheese store, Harlingen, TX, has one of those.
cool video
I rly hope cec dont remoce the studio c bots they are cute.
Does anybody know any information about the Dickson City Chuck E cheese in Pennsylvania
There’s another location that still has a Chuck E. Cheese in the circle of lights which is in Salt Lake City Utah so when you go to Utah go check out the location that is in there and guess what there are no plans for a 2.0 in this location
The location opened at July 22 2013 it had a 16m Studio C bot, sadly chuck e. Still doesn’t move as of 2024
Hey Chris by any chance could you check out the Chuck E. Cheese in west islip? When it was preforming I thought it was the best studio c alpha.
A Chuck E. Bot at a Circle of Lights stage? Shocked he was still there truthfully. Making plans to go visit Northridge in a few weeks! 😆

Yes, Ill be visiting there in a couple months
@@SetsStreetsEatsit’ll be gone by then

they already said the 5 locations that have been announced are the only ones being saved
I go to the Chuck e Cheese's 🐭
THIS ONE IS NEAR MEEE BRUH IF I WENT HERE ON THE SAME DAY AAS U I COULD OF MEET U NOOOOOO
The reason why they don’t have any old artwork is because it was built in 2013-14.
Pizza time theater chuck e cheese size
I see the real chuck e cheese
I hate the 2.0 exteriors😐
In all honesty I found them surprisingly cool
@@JimBobJoeB0b they're not ugly to look at, but its not C.E.C. to me.
I don't think they're the worst but they can be pretty plain
