I was. My two favorite places on the planet were my local skating rink, and Showbiz. I was deathly afraid of the Sun character, though. I still think it's creepy. I tried to buy one from Aaron, but it was going to be too difficult to ship.
Had my BD that same month and year at my local SBP. Unfortunately my mom didn’t get any pictures or video of the RAE. I love watching the old family videos of them. Thanks for sharing!
@@mitik392 not at all. The Person sat in a little booth by Rolf and Earl's stage behind a one way mirror. You could see out,but not in.There were 2 round pads with 4 or 5 buttons on them and a microphone to talk for Billy Bob. There are videos in RU-vid that will show you the set up.
@@mitik392 Me and my brother had a Lot of fun there. He played Billy Bib in the costume for birthday parties quite a few times,I did a few. I was also Santa Claus there in 1984. Still have some pictures.
The shows running are Showbiz Pizza corporate showtapes. These were made without Creative Engineering's involvement, so they brought in their own voice actors to "impersonate" the standard VAs. Of course the interactive Billy Bob controller is used as well, of which the voice is just an employee at that Showbiz location
in 86 Showbiz (Corporate) decided that creative engineering would not be making the shows anymore and they made the show tapes themselves from then until all RAE were wiped out, and I don't believe any of the original voice actors continued to voice act for these new shows
