  • I finally get around to reuploading this video that was only up for a couple days before being taken down! Luckily, the conflict which caused this to happen has been resolved, so the video shouldn't be taken down again. Today, we look back at a couple of very interesting locations.
    Thanks to @CECWashingtonTheCECFan, @RatKingLiam, @SapKyle, and @karlgt3656 for requesting these areas!

    The Lynwood, WA CEC was a very interesting location. Animatronics aside, the building looked like something that would normally be used for a municipal office or parks and recreation department, or the like. I also noticed this one had a Sheetrock ceiling, instead of a drop ceiling.

      The 1986-built store was the only ShowBiz Pizza store throughout the entire state of WA that survived into the 1990s, and thus the only such store to be rebranded to Chuck E. Cheese's by 1992.

      Houston's already been requested, though I'm not exactly sure how I'm going to do it. It'll have to be separated into a few parts for sure, but the main issue is that there's so many locations to cover that it would take a few weeks' worth of videos to get through which is something I'm not sure people want to go through.

      @@ZzN2CzZ But then how do I schedule it? It would probably mean pausing history videos as taking on more than one of those at a time would be difficult, so I’d probably have to have at least two week’s worth of the main weekly videos that aren’t history videos done over those 2-3 weeks it would take. I’ll see what I can do, maybe do a poll on if people would rather have a longer video or 2-3 videos on Houston.

    the dog mouth game where you push down the bone handle to get the balls in its mouth.
    basketball, football, skeeball.
    coffee cup ride.
    the calling game where you can talk to chuck and his friends.
    and the adventure chuck picture car ride.
    it had a childrens play area.
    the showroom itself had a studio C alpha bot. next to the bot was an intractable control station where you could control the stage lights ect, i remember messing around with it.
    and it had working cameras around the place.

    Dude what the hell is "spoKANE" it's pronounced "SPOH CAN".
    This is hard to watch, I live in western Washington and I don't know why someone who doesn't have any connection to the area is making videos on the history of these locations. Pizza Time theater was once at the alderwood Mall in the See's Candy location that you pictured. It wasn't in the main mall itself but in a standalone location across the parking lot. The Lynnwood CEC that just closed was originally a showbiz Pizza with the three stage. If you're going to make videos like this I'd highly suggest getting on Facebook and asking for more information first.. tons of people who worked at these locations are on and may have more information and or pictures. If I was going to make one of these videos about the store in your neighborhood I'd probably have some information to share first.

    • @ItzaRob
      @ItzaRob  8 місяців тому

      Because someone requested these locations, and they seemed to enjoy the video so I'm pretty happy with that. The issue with asking people on Facebook is that it could take a long time to get a response back and I have to make these videos within the span of a week, and I typically get all the info I feel I need to properly cover these locations so I feel my videos get the job done well for the time crunch they have to be put under. People in your area have chose not to make a history video on these areas so I did because someone requested them.
