This is a store I’ve been waiting to see get covered, it’s nice to see even up to the time of the store’s 2.0 remodel, the bots remained in good shape.
One thing about Greensboro's history, when you mentioned Greensboro wanting to expand into the space next door, Catherine's went out of business during COVID. However, CEC still couldn't expand, either due to having pay more to for the extra area or the shopping center not wanting CEC taking up more store space. But it turns out that a beauty salon two doors down from CEC ended up putting more money to expand into the space that CEC wanted. One of Greensboro's managers told me that back in 2017, CEC even tried to move out of their space to a free-standing building on the other side of their parking lot when a restaurant closed. But much like with the salon later, a fitness center outbid CEC for the space.
I wish this location could have been like Northridge, California where they kept the animatronics. I have heard that the Chuck E. Cheese’s on Pineville-Matthew’s Road in Charlotte, North Carolina may be able to keep their stage, which is only an hour and a half from where I live.
This store is got to be one of the best stores in North Carolina! They had a bunch of 90s decor and the stage was in great shape! But sad to see when they got 2.0 also Good video Rob!
If you do any more of these, you should consider covering Darien, IL. It had a unique "studio 3" stage, and opened as a spp. It had a rae and for a while it was a 3 stage, but then they got rid of all the cei bots and added a studio c to the center stage(imported from another loation), but they kept the 3 stage and curtains. Its a overall interesting store, something thats potentially worth looking into.
This was a pretty interesting location! It had the second to last 1988 exterior, which Chico CA had the last one before it closed (I could be wrong though) but pretty cool video!
You should do the Jeddah Corniche Saudi Arabia location, it started construction in 2000 and opened on December 12th of 2001 (according to the 2003 archived website) and closed in 2019 due to them wanting to move to a smaller location
6:53 I probably have footage of Greensboro from 2020 but I haven't put up the videos onto UA-cam yet. I will have to look and see if I have any in my files but no one is allowed to use them.
This store is super interesting, but I'm sad the bots were destroyed. I miss the days when CEC let some bots survive as retrofits [the Marc's Funtime Pizza ones are actually super cool and have their own showtapes].
I have a history video request! Can you combine the history of both Torrance CA locations. There is plenty of old footage from both stores and it would make a great history video.
The exterior at 2:21 is not Greensboro, it’s actually Pineville’s exterior, this photo and more can be found on the SPP website in their photo gallery section under the name “ShowBiz Pizza Place - Charlotte, NC (1984-85)”
Incorrect, showbizpizzacom has put up multiple incorrectly labeled compilations of photos and that unfortunately is one of them. You can compare that photo with the exterior of Greensboro in 2007 and see that it’s the same exterior.
This is just a suggestion, but maybe you can do a history video of the Springfield Massachusetts showbiz pizza place an Chuck E. Cheese location It’s just a suggestion though. Have a good day.
Can you do Buffalo there was a ptt that had a balcony stage and cheese e street that was open from 1983-1985 and then a Chuck E. Cheese that opened in 1993 with a 1 stage and there’s actually a video from 1993 and it closed in 2020 because of covid and fights
I’ll do San Jose eventually, but it’ll be one of my most difficult videos yet due to the anticipation and having to make sure the info is all correct despite the fact that finding correct info on those locations to one can be difficult.
Itzarob, I Have Another Request, Do Fort Walton Fl, You May Be Asking Why? Because this Location Had Old Showbiz Pizza Signs Like The Restroom Sign A PTT Artwork, Jasper Has A Unique Clothing, Thats Why, So Can You Do That Please
The only other locations in NC left for me to cover are just generic Studio C locations. Currently I do not have the motivation to make those so it’ll be awhile after Fayetteville drops.
Great video! (I watched on my alt acc though on my PC) You should cover North Carolina Burgaw. My childhood CEC. I think it opened as a SPP in the early 1980s.
I'm going to update Charlotte as a whole (I've done it in the past, it was quite literally my first history video) soon. As for Saudi Arabia, I'm not going to tackle anymore international locations for now, so I'll pass.
I never made an Illinois video for Springfield, and the only one that’s planned to get an update is Pineville so far, though Hicksville may as well if I can find enough info on it to make into a full video.
Don’t expect one soon, there’s a reason San Jose is sparsely covered and it’s because it probably has the most info to cover out of any other area by far. I’ll get to it eventually, but only when I’m ready (which I’m not yet).
Everyone is requesting so why not Anyways I had a hard time deciding so I’ll go with Corpus Christi, but I kinda wanna know if Sun Valley is still a “pass for now”
This is a store I’ve been waiting to see get covered, it’s nice to see even up to the time of the store’s 2.0 remodel, the bots remained in good shape.
Great to see all of my footage being used in this! I do miss the show being there, and being able to decorate it every year.
Thank you JESmith for all your footage of this location! I went to this location as a kid not knowing this type of stage used to be Showbiz Pizza!

Can you do simi valley Ca? it has a interesting history!
Hello brother
So happy you did it Greensboro was important to me as my local
I think this is the earliest I’ve been, I love how well organized and researched your videos are :)
I have a request: the very first location to receive 2.0 (a test location), San Antonio Texas, Stone Oak!
I want you to go over what would have happened if everything went PERFECT for the Pizza Time Theatre.
Unrealistic, and if you simple mean if they never went bankrupt then I have a video already on that.
Cool
This was a pretty interesting location! It had the second to last 1988 exterior, which Chico CA had the last one before it closed (I could be wrong though) but pretty cool video!
Good video rob this is best video you ever done.
I love CEC locations with unique exteriors 👍😎.
Thank you for the video!
You’re welcome.
Always a great day when rob uploads
I’ll never forget the infamous video of them of glitching in CEC animatronic malfunction videos from a long time ago
You did a wonderful job at finding research for this video good job
You should do the Jeddah Corniche Saudi Arabia location, it started construction in 2000 and opened on December 12th of 2001 (according to the 2003 archived website) and closed in 2019 due to them wanting to move to a smaller location
6:53 I probably have footage of Greensboro from 2020 but I haven't put up the videos onto UA-cam yet.
I will have to look and see if I have any in my files but no one is allowed to use them.
You should try and do one on charlie Cheese, the Australian chuck e cheese!!!
Great video the exterior from earlier is the best
Hey by chance can you do Augusta GA It had a pretty interesting history being one of the locations to get a yogi bear
This store is super interesting, but I'm sad the bots were destroyed. I miss the days when CEC let some bots survive as retrofits [the Marc's Funtime Pizza ones are actually super cool and have their own showtapes].
You should make a video about The two Chuck E. Cheese locations in Fresno, California one of them used to be a showbiz pizza place.
I'll pass.
Can you do the one with Charlotte North Carolina with the road stage?
I have, I’ll be making an update on the entirety of Charlotte soon.
I WAS IN THIS VIDEO YAYY
This location’s exterior gives off Altoona pa vibes. Also RIP tot the 3 stage
Nce video as always
If you can. Can you do Novi, Michigan
I’ll pass.
I have a history video request! Can you combine the history of both Torrance CA locations. There is plenty of old footage from both stores and it would make a great history video.
I’ll pass.

@@ItzaRobFr but Greensboro got a trampoline zone
@@ItzaRobyeah, another set of mislabelled photos are the unknown tn pictures, which are really from Mississauga Ontario (Dixie Rd)
It’s a shame I had to miss the premiere, As I was at Dollywood all day. But it still was a pretty good video as I’m typing this at 11:44pm.
Can you do the history of the Chuck E. Cheese in Portland Oregon
we forgot to say that they got a trampoline zone
This is just a suggestion, but maybe you can do a history video of the Springfield Massachusetts showbiz pizza place an Chuck E. Cheese location It’s just a suggestion though. Have a good day.
I’ll pass for now.
Hey itzarob could you please do the locations in Richmond Va there were a handful of locations in Richmond thank you,

Hey Itzarob can u do History Of Chuck E Cheese's in Simi Valley, CA It had like an ordinary bot like a moose

Itzarob

Can you do a history video on CEC PTT and CEC in Mentor, OH
Maybe.
Can you do kooser road
i live really close to nc
day 1 of asking to make a history video on winchester blvd location
I’ll do San Jose eventually, but it’ll be one of my most difficult videos yet due to the anticipation and having to make sure the info is all correct despite the fact that finding correct info on those locations to one can be difficult.
@@ItzaRob please do kooser too
Can you do Hicksville next
No, not next. I am undecided currently on whether or not I’m going to make an updated history video on it or not.
Itzarob, I Have Another Request, Do Fort Walton Fl, You May Be Asking Why? Because this Location Had Old Showbiz Pizza Signs Like The Restroom Sign A PTT Artwork, Jasper Has A Unique Clothing, Thats Why, So Can You Do That Please
Bro pls make a video of a flame fruit combo
I don’t play that game anymore. I haven’t for a long time.
yo does this mean we might be getting more history of chuck e cheeses in nc? im sure winston salem is the last to cover.
The only other locations in NC left for me to cover are just generic Studio C locations. Currently I do not have the motivation to make those so it’ll be awhile after Fayetteville drops.
Do Augusta/Martinez Georgia! (My local location that I haven’t been to since 2.0)
Also, no one’s done a video on it yet…
Maybe.
@@ItzaRob Thanks for at least considering it!
Could you do walker mi soon
I’ll pass.

@@ItzaRob oh Ok. Can I request another location?
Can you do Torrance?
No thanks.
lets go
can we try richmond, va or la mesa?
Maybe.
Can you do Altoona PA UPDATED? It started 2.0
No, just getting 2.0 is not reason enough to update it.
Great video! (I watched on my alt acc though on my PC) You should cover North Carolina Burgaw. My childhood CEC. I think it opened as a SPP in the early 1980s.
There was never a location in Burgaw.
That’s crazy
Are you going to be at Billy Bob con IV
Not this year, it didn’t end up working out.
Pineville or Saudi Arabia for the location requests?
I'm going to update Charlotte as a whole (I've done it in the past, it was quite literally my first history video) soon. As for Saudi Arabia, I'm not going to tackle anymore international locations for now, so I'll pass.
im gonna be honest ccould you do Roanoke, Virginia pls
I'll pass.
Are you gonna update your pineville, Illinois, and NY location videos now that they are retro?
I never made an Illinois video for Springfield, and the only one that’s planned to get an update is Pineville so far, though Hicksville may as well if I can find enough info on it to make into a full video.
@@ItzaRob ok good to hear
i got a good idea for a history of video. San jose california
like ive been waiting for a san jose video for ages now
Don’t expect one soon, there’s a reason San Jose is sparsely covered and it’s because it probably has the most info to cover out of any other area by far. I’ll get to it eventually, but only when I’m ready (which I’m not yet).
@@ItzaRob oh ok
Are you still going to do Gastonia?
Yeah eventually but it’s taking a long time since he doesn’t have a time frame for shorts
do chuck e cheese madison tn
I’ll pass for now.
Plus, chatty chuck e already made a history video of it
Everyone is requesting so why not
Anyways I had a hard time deciding so I’ll go with Corpus Christi, but I kinda wanna know if Sun Valley is still a “pass for now”
I’ll pass.
Hi👍✌️
