I’m from Kansas City and moved to Topeka Kansas when I was around 5. We now have the newer gen Chuck E. Cheese without the animatronics, but about 10 years ago they had the rock a fire animatronics with the Chuck E. Cheese facelift band. I’m not sure if the Topeka location was a showbiz or not but as a kid I loved them. Sad that they’re gone.
I remember going to Chuck E. Cheese's in Kansas City, Missouri when I was younger in 1998, But sadly, The location is closed in 2007 until it get demolished, But the Chuck E. Cheese's location was relocated to Skyview Ave, Kansas City, Missouri in 2008, to have a Studio C Beta stage. It lasted until 2017, when they removed Studio C Beta stage to replaced by Dance Floor.
I had my 9th birthday party there in DEC of 1980. I only lived 2 miles from there. I take my grandson to that Chucky Cheese on SkyView. I still get my hair cut next to that Firehouse subs.
You should have mentioned that this was originally gonna be a Pizza Time Theatre; it was gonna be Bob Brock’s first location (remember, Nolan Bushnell had Brock under a franchisee contract). The shipped the animatronics (either a Shelf or a Balcony Stage), and Brock didn’t like they way they looked, so he contacted Aaron to make animatronics for him, and the rest is history. That’s why this location has a PTT Cheese Crawl from opening until the 1988 remodel.
I wonder if that's why Mini was introduced. So the cheese would make sense
This place holds a special place in my heart. I grew up going to this ShowBiz Pizza / Chuck E cheese in Kansas City as a small child all the way up through probably 11, 12, 13 years old. This was my ShowBiz Pizza. My grandfather would take me it seems like every other weekend to this place, in fact he jokes around today and says I should be the owner I've invested so much money in that place from taking you so much lol! I know it's not there anymore, but every time I drive by there I can still see it in my mind connected to the Antioch shopping center I had a lot of memories there as well.
These history videos are awesome, can’t wait for this one in particular!
Great video. I can’t remember which location it was, but I remember hearing that in some point in history that there was a Showbiz location that had both an RAE and a WP5 in the same showroom. Idk if the information is valid or whatever, but the thought of two nearly identical bands in the same location is interesting…
It sucks that most of these locations that you cover never have actual pictures or videos of the inside while being a showbiz.
I mean this one had interior footage from 1989, plus photos from 1980.
It's the exterior views of these locations (before 1st remodel) that are more lacking in availability, though.
can't wait for this video! been looking forward to more of these, they are very interesting to watch
Wohoo! Another history video!
Missouri now this is my favorite video now!!!
This was a interesting location but nice history vid.
7:28 The Dook animatronic from Rockafire came from Snaps Blast to the Past, but when that place burned down sadly in 2010, the animatronic mechs remained intact, so they were sent to Chris Thrash. It is unknown what happened to them afterward as they might be in Thrash's workshop still. Then Dook was sent to Rockafire, and then when the bar closed, the animatronics were sent off to fans. These locations are near from where I live actually!
Wolfman in the thumbnail looks like you told im he woud be in a crate for 30 years
Wholesome Video! But It’s Sad To See That The First Oldest Showbiz Pizza Location Was Closed And Demolished :(
Your right
i have a video idea!! what if chuck e cheeses kept the latex masks and the 3 stages instead of making it a dance floor and studio c etc
(i love 3 stage)
There probably was a caberet because this place was supposed to be a ptt but the owner brock parted out of the deal and made it a showbiz instead
7:27, the animatronics came from creative engineering. Aaron made a video on his channel talking about this location
Dook came from Snaps Blast to the past, which burned down in 2010. When they were going to be sent to the bar, Aaron probably had Dook after Chris Thrash took the mechs from Snaps, they were in good condition actually!
Yes the Boomis animatronics were there at the bar but for a brief time only. The owner (forgot his instagram name sorry, I think his name was Cannan?) posted pictures of the endoskeletons of the helen, munch, pasqually, and I think warbelettes but can't remember for sure since this was years ago and his instagram became privated. They were located on a high platform to the very right of where the Rock-afire animatronics were.
Video Request:The History Of Chuck E Cheese's In Middletown NJ (My Childhood Chuck E Chesse's) (Mini Story About It: I Vaguely Remember When I Was 5-7 That The Animatronics Were The Concept Unification Bots But Then Changed To The Full Body Cyboramics (Spelled Wrong Prob) But Show Tapes Show That It Was A One Stage So I think it could be a CU1 Stage But It Could Be That Or My Location Changed Stages)
(If You Credit Me It Pronounced DEE-Kin)
Who’s here after they announced a new Kansas City store
the new mic sounds good
I think the animatronic for rockafire bar are from showbiz pizza zone when they closed
Gee The First Opening Location!
*history video
Pineville was the first history video he made
Can anyone explain to me what the Radom duplicate showbiz pizza locations like fun time pizza and the wolf pack pizza
Do a history of Chuck E Cheese in Sacramento California!
I'm not taking anymore history video requests right now.
@@ItzaRob ok!
The rock afire bar bots come from creative engineering I think cause there is a vid where Aron is testing the billy bob
Can you do the history of Chuck E. Cheese on broad street aka henrico in richmond
Someone's already requested Richmond, though it'll be awhile before I get to it.
😀😯😥😰😱😥😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
i went to skyview in 2011
can you do one of the Raleigh Nc Pizza time Theater!?
He already did a video on Raleigh
You should do a History Video of Guatemala City, Guatemala.
I'm not taking anymore history video requests right now.
Hey man I just wanna know if your taking requests now to see if you could do Indianapolis location since last time you weren’t taking request. By the way nice history choice! The first Showbiz with the wolf pack 5! To bad they closed it to relocate.
Unfortunately I still am not taking them right now, but I'm close to being able to do so! I should be able to take them in less than two months' time.
I Wonder If You Can Do My Local Chuck. E Cheese In Olympia WA Because I Want To Know What’s The History Behind It
I'm not taking anymore history video requests right now.
@@ItzaRob Ok I Can Give You A Break From Video Requests
Wait This Is Live?!
It's a premiere.
I’d recommend waiting a while to make the Aurora video, due to the controversy Nathan Spies has gotten into
Luckily no one has requested it, I plan on covering the history of every area that had/has a SPP or CEC though so I will have to cover it eventually. I'll make sure to be respectful about the whole situation once I get to it though.
Nobody should request it and Nathan spies got undeserved hate
@@SearsAndPennys1981 The criticism was valid, even if he didn't mean to come off as such there were multiple instances that were definitely needing to be edited out, and unless you didn't watch the original video you know what I'm talking about.
@@ItzaRob oh now I see, well at least everything is normal now
@@ItzaRob I want to let you know I’ve been changing my thoughts on this incident
While I still like the video,I do agree there was some parts that had to be cut out to perfect it.And I also wanna warn you to be careful when you get to Aurora, as some people think history should be erased(I know I said nobody should talk about it but I was mad about more aurora shenanigans).But anyways, I’m glad most people got over it and I hope you be careful and respect the victims.Keep being awesome.
Hey are you still gonna do the Laurel MD chuck e cheese
My list is long, and these videos take a week each to make. Just wait a little longer.
Do a history of chuck e cheese in sacramento california
I'm not taking anymore history video requests right now.
Can You do a History video of the Showbiz Pizza Place/Chuck E. Cheeses In San Antonio Texas?
I'm not taking anymore history video requests right now.
@@ItzaRob oh dam
7:28 the owner bought them from Aaron I will look for the video of Aaron update on them
There was another SPP in Kansas City that you forgot
Hm, it appears to be a lost location, so I don't mind too much that I missed it.
Alternate history video idea:what if the video game crash of 1983 never happened?
I've already told people about this, but this would be such a giant video idea that would cause waves across so much more than CEC/SPP that I would never be able to really come up with something for that.
@@ItzaRob I was talking about how this would effect cec and show biz specifically not other arcades but I feel you it would change history forever.
@@ItzaRob I do feel you, if both companies kept mass franchising that would be a disaster.
Sorry about 2 replies that was an error
Yeah the wolf pack was in a showbiz location not in kansas it got sent to a location in somewhere in ohio and disco room wolfman was sent to aaron
Yeah this is the first time I'm hearing of this, and why if I can't find confirmed info then I don't include it in the video.
The rockafire bars animatronics came form Aaron
I'm pretty sure they came from multiple places, and without proper sourcing I can't really say anything for sure.
@@ItzaRob I think billy bob mitsi and fats and beach bear came from aaron because he did post a sneak peek video on them but I don’t know where the other Ss came from
Please do the carona,California Chuck e cheese
I'm not taking anymore history video requests right now.
@@ItzaRob it’s OK bro😎
I ALWAYS COME BACK
Aton
Can you do the chuck e cheese in willowdale Ontario Canada I know you're not taking requests right now, but here's some location you can take next time when you're doing request again
I will certainly take into consideration your request once I start taking them again. Since you're a member, I think I'm going to try and prioritize your request as I will for all members.
Do Chuck E. Cheese in San Jose Tully Rd and Kooser Rd
I'm not taking anymore history video requests right now, but I'm definitely going to try and do that one at some point.
Okk thank you!
It sounds the same. What's the next location?
Mobile, Alabama.
Chuck e, cheese
The bots are probably at the spt distortion center
And what source is this coming from? They don't send every bot back there.
Just a lucky guess
@@RealTuxChuck Ah. I hope you're not spreading that around to others because that leads to a thing called misinformation. It's a big problem in this community and I'd like to not see it spread.
Itzarob I have great news
What would that be?
Pineville is getting saved. It is confirmed it says it on the Huntsville alabama cheese e pedia page
@@wyattsamazingshow2.0 That's not confirmed, please just wait until the location remodels before saying anything on whether it's being saved or not.
It says it, though and do you do discord
@@wyattsamazingshow2.0 Yes, but you should not do Discord since you're not supposed to have an account on there until you're 13. Plus, do you not realize that not everything on the internet you see is true? Please heed my advice if you do not know that and remember that you should not believe everything you see online.
Ahhhhhhhhhh
Could you stop commenting on CEC/SPP creator’s comment sections with stuff like this? It’s annoying and is useless trolling.
Only if you do a history video about Panama city
@@querty.uihopt This is your one and only chance to stop before I block you from the channel.
Was That Next Location Aurora?
Uh, no. I don't plan on covering Aurora currently, that's Mobile, Alabama.
Nathan spies already did aurora colorado no need for itzarob to do it
@@CrustyThecat I'll be trying to cover every location with some sort of info on it, even if it takes a long time.
@ItzaRob then you'll get a copyright strike, and I don't want that to happen
@@CrustyThecat 🤣For what? Making a history video? You truly do not realize how this stuff works do you? I'm allowed to make a history video even if someone else has made one already. What do you think I'm gonna do, STEAL their video or something? I'd do my own obviously, and do my own research and stuff.
Hey I talked to Aaron about con Aaron has to get lung surgery and will be zoom calling at the con if you could Mabye post this news cause my channel is not big yours is could you do that for me
That’s interesting, though I won’t be posting it on my community page or in a video.
Ya I understand
Are you a chief fan because I cannot subscribe with the chief fan bro I’m a 49ers fan I’m part of the 49ers game my homey tell me the truth, my Homie I’m making me my Homie
I'm not a fan of football in general, so I do not care personally.
