The showroom at the abandoned Montfort location is actually still intact. If you go to the cube glass windows on the side of the store, you can see the old studio c stage!
Any videos that show that?
@@smokeyjoeproductions just look up CEC Montfort and you'll find it
@@smokeyjoeproductions None unfurtunately since it's Target corporate work offices and they are strict about taking photos or video there.
I don’t know if he mentioned this, but the 32m bot was sent to the port orange, Florida Chuck E. Cheese’s. The store got destroyed due to hurricane Ian and. So was the bot.
actually, the bot was completely fine surprisingly! i don’t recall what happened to it after but it did infact survive
I know it survived when the store got damaged. I’m just saying, after that they demolished the store.
Awesome! I’m glad you met Matt once again!
This is gonna be hype!
About a month ago I did some Google-Fu and Google Earth scouring to find the original Showbiz location, found out it closed in 2002 or so and was demolished not much later....the location of the doorway is now part of a parking lot 😢 but I'm still looking forward to watching and learning more!
Edit: my bad, by original Showbiz you meant the original *montfort tx* one! haha
It's actually not demolished. They just repurposed it into offices but it's still there and you'll get to see it in this video!
Do you mind sharing the exact address of old original location? I've been trying to look for it.
Ask him for the layout!!
Once again what amazing video Chris and especially with Matt the franchize again! 🤩
2 LEGENDS RIGHT HERE
15:12 it was on top of a wall when you visited Travis
I can’t wait to watch this
That's so cool that you saw Matt again
Nice to see they're being a bit more lenient on not destroying everything too bad we can't say the same for all the other locations I sure hope they save atleast 1 of every type of animatronic show even if it were to just go into a museum and be put on display in a static no perform format im sure people would still go for the history and to see all the cool old stuff
Wonder if Dallas could become a pioneer once more as a retro store. Via the corporate owned Huntsville AL 3 Stage or something similar! Cant wait nonetheless!❤
That would be amazing!
Huntsvilles show was destroyed so that’s impossible.
@@Cheezbatit didn't get destroyed
@@Cheezbat The Huntsville show was taken to SPT in Kansas, minus the Building and Pizzacam if I recall
@@BeachKai I don’t know where you got your information but from what I was told that show was destroyed
Super interesting with nice archives!🐭
I went to this CEC for the summer of fun Concert tour it's a pretty nice store
How did I not catch this one here? 😅
I guess corporate stopped considering Irving a home base store once corporate relocated their offices.
You need to give your guests a mic. It's hard to hear him.
Awesome video , would be awesome to have both you and Matt visit Chuck E. Cheese at Milwaukee Chase Ave again. Opened around 1981 and used to have a Chuck e Street zone and an underground crawl zone under the show also. The show walls are still in tact and still have animatronics also. A lot of history at that location, and rumored was they had a adult section in the far right with the King at one point
Hi Chris I will see you in the live
If you ever wanna do a video on the history of past and current locations in the OKC area I'd love to help I know a lot about those locations as they are the ones i grew up going to like how the original showbiz in SW OKC burned down sometime around 2004 or 2005
All 3 locations in Hawaii have the skytubes still
That's very cool to hear, I'll be visiting at least one of those in February
@@SetsStreetsEats oh sweet! Lmk which location! I work at the Honolulu CEC!
I didn't know there was more than one two story CEC lol. One of these days I'll figure out how to demo my idea for a 2.5 stage idea. It'll never happen but I really want to get the idea how there as a 'just in case' lol
Tell me why if I win lotto I’m 100% opening my own CEC ❤😂 this location is truly wonderfully maintained
NOW ASK HIM ABOUT THE SHOWBIZ OF ARLINGTON
Is anybody gonna talk about the fact that the old booths are still here?!
that’s because Budget Cuts
Probably the best 2.0 location, except for Northridge CA.
April 2010? Whoa i was born in april 1st, 2010 lol
you should go to cec headquarters that will be amazing
They no longer allow tours sadly.
I laugh about the first of the video
do you think you'll ever visit the manchester location? its an old ptt
2.0 with old booths?
they got the Refresh version of 2.0 (2023 version), the ones earlier in the year reused the old furniture but all the ones that I've seen pics of recently have the 2.0 booths. (Montfort got 2.0 in May 2023)
Hey Chris I have a question have you seen a studio c stage that had the old camera to the blue room I know you don't see it anymore but it had this turning camera that you could switch to on the interact camera control
I know what you're talking about and I definitely keep my eye out for one but I have yet to see one but I sure would like to 🙂
@@SetsStreetsEats and when you can could you try checking out the 2.0 version of the Chuck-E-Cheese in hickory North Carolina Caldwell
@@wiseman5519 I really don't do any 2.0 visits unless there's a particular historical reason and it has to be a really significant one.
@@SetsStreetsEatsif i recall correctly, the blue screen camera is only at some of the few Studio C Beta locations outside the United States.
Are you ever going to dept 18
They no longer allow tours
@@SetsStreetsEats aww man :(
Sup
What happened to Chris
Hey! Just thought I'd mention something 7:56
About the Canadian stores being Franchises, I'm not sure if this applies to stores outside of Ontario, however all Ontario CEC stores are Corp owned and we have no play places in any of our locations!!
We have only 5 locations in the entirety of Ontario and all have removed their Skytubes and stuff during the pandemic
I'm not really sure about the other Canadian stores personally since I haven't looked into em
Thank you for updating that information!
By the way, is the road stage still at one location and the giant Chucky statue at the other?
@SetsStreetsEats The huge statue is located at the 2stage location in Willowdale/North York
The location turns 40 yrs old today, actually!
I'll have a little Anniversary video out for it lol
all 10 locations in Canada are corporate owned (the 5 in Ontario, the 3 in Alberta, and the 1 in Sasketchewan and the 1 in British Columbia.)
Nooo…. I cannot wait for Halloween to be over. This should be voted worse intro on RUclips. Music really stinks Chris.
*sorry we don't allow haters on here get out*
U hate Halloween? Or what the problem
@@lucaleiva6021 not Halloween. Chris cannot hold a tune. The music stinks. Chris has bad taste in music for Halloween. I like his channel, but now I hate his intros
@@CaseytheCalifornian The music stinks. What are you..a Karen??
