The History of Showbiz Pizza Place & Chuck E. Cheese in Little Rock, Arkansas 

Great to see you've found this! It would make sense that the animatronics were sent to North Little Rock for spare parts since the location was nearby, but unfortunately that 3 stage is now gone as well, and I'm assuming it's destroyed since that's what usually happens to these locations that remodel to 2.0. Interesting to hear they had a lot of games. It truly seems like this was a great location, so it's a shame it's gone now.

@@ItzaRob yeah. There’s another video on that same channel with my grandmother in it but it shows basically the same thing, not much different. It’s just a account I have lost the password to lol

@@TimeNerd Ok so I wanted to go ahead and ask if I could continue using the footage of yours I used in this video. I didn't ask you for permission before so I wanted to now (as you saw I give credit in the video but I also do it in the description).

@@ItzaRob yes go ahead

@@ItzaRobalso have no idea why I thought about this and had to come back. In the photo at 9:10 , you can see a door on the far left side that kind of blends in with the building. Now from this photo you can tell that the building is slanted since it is on a incline/downcline. So to get to that door, you had to go up steps to get to it. I found myself climbing this step many times wanting to push the door open to see where it led (before me knowing that it was just outside). No the newer location never got the sky tubes. The sky tubes that the old location had, I remember bigger, and also had the old “put your shoes here” cubbies and sign. They had all the normal games, one of mine being “use the fist to knock over the duck” with chucked bug face on the top. Still my favorite location I have ever visited and one I miss to this day. The look of it in person was something that hasn’t been re done to this day in my opinion. It felt old and grand and even till final days, had that charm. When you entered to the right, they had a small cubby area with just a bunch of munch ticket munchers which I found funny. I also bought a bunch of pushes which I still have and where I got a copy of Chuck E. Cheese and the galaxy 5000 movie once. I bought one online last year and it went to my old address and never got it lol so I’m still on that hunt. Next to the stage room was a straight hallway like you see in the empty room photo. All the way to the back was a door that led to the costume room which I accidentally went into one time. To the right of that was the bathrooms and stuff. The game room was massive. The biggest one I’ve ever been into. This location was special, and not just because it was my home one, it felt like the 80’s without me ever been there. A classic

I spent a long time checking and verifying the info Cheese-e-pedia gave me, and the area is indeed still unused. Maybe abandoned is the wrong word, but the area remains empty and unused to my knowledge as I went on google maps to check and find the exact area it was located in, and it didn't seem to be apart of either of the places. I'd love to see someone go there today though and check the interior of that area that was formerly the CEC and see what's inside of it now to verify that 100% though.

UPDATE: I just passed by the location and the space is now a UAMS health center

bruh

I’m not taking anymore history video requests right now.

That’s what I thought

Interesting, I didn't know that actually. At the very least it's the same design as dook's drum front.

Interesting, I didn't notice that.

I don't know what for, if you made a history video request, you're going to need to wait awhile before it's fulfilled.

I still think older stages would've been removed, but this isn't a bad idea. I'll have to think on it.

@@ItzaRob thanks

@@hunterleach5710 You're welcome.

Alright, thanks for informing me ahead of time so I don't mess it up on the actual history video lol.

@@ItzaRob Also fact about the first Spokane location. It originally was a Pizza Time Theater, which got a 2 Stage at some point in the 1990s. Sadly though, no footage exists anywhere of the location when it became a Chuck E Cheese, or any footage of the 2 Stage, but a friend of mine believes it could've had a similar interior to Northridge, since Northridge also had a Balcony Stage, then a 2 Stage. So as of 2023, the 1st Spokane CEC is lost media.

It was

Chuck E. Cheese feet to be exact their still the 90s latex mask feet not the plastic mask feet

Is that why they looked weird? I never knew the feet were latex.

Almost everything on the characters was latex until the plastic masks were introduced, hands, feet, shoes, etc.

@@JoCox4048 That's interesting.

I’ll pass for now.

Pls

I'm not taking anymore history video requests for now.

Thats Ok :)@@ItzaRob

Yes, I've learned that. I've fixed that in the actual history video about it and Lynnwood (which will be out Friday).

​@@ItzaRobtomorrow woo

Hey​@@ItzaRobcan you edit the spokane/lynwood video to include my name

@@karlgt3656 I don't think I'll be able to, but we'll see what happens.

@@ItzaRob ok

He doesn't take requests anymore atleast for now

Marco is correct, I'm not taking history requests anymore for awhile.

I'm not taking anymore history video requests right now, sorry.
