Trouble at Chuck E Cheese I've often said that one version of h-ell is an endless kid's party at Chuck E Cheese. Had my daughters party there once...., after that I found that the roller skating rink parties were much more tolerable! (The couple parties I had at home resulted in some very unusual stains on our carpet.....)

I've never been there but I find it hard to believe that all of these fights cn occur over children's games at a pizza place. I know my grandosn loves it at Chuck E Cheese but I my never let him go back there.

The psych ward

Been once (and that's enough!) The animatronics bears playing music, screaming kids, cruddy pizza, loud, loud, loud. My location is "the psych ward" but it could possibly be Chuck E. Cheese...

The Chuck E. Cheese where I used to live; there was a pub just across the parking lot and parents would tag team watching the kid and going to the bar, made the experience more tolerable....but after the pub shut down and Chuckies stopped selling watered down beer altogether: nothin in the world could get me in that place.

My grandchildren love that place, but the other grandmother takes them there We find other things to do that are much quieter. Not only too much noise, too many people, and lousy food - what about how expensive? I'd rather take the kids to the locally owned putt-putt/game room for games.

I have never had a problem taking my kids there, we usually hit it right after school, it is fairly empty and the kids have a great time, well worth it for the fun they have, especially when I was living up north. It was a nice break from the snow

Ha ha ha!! Special K, you slay me.
While I've never been to this restaurant in my life, I think I'll start going because it's cheaper than tickets to a cage fight. Or hockey.

Comedian Tim Wilson has a song about Chuckie Cheese [censored]:
I got combat training from overseas Now I'm the bouncer at the Chucky Cheese I think I'd rather do a year in jail Than another afternoon In Chucky Cheese [censored]
Chucky Cheese [censored] I'm in Chucky CHEEEEEEESE [censored]! We cater to a snot nose clientele In Chucky Cheese [censored]
Mama drives Chipper to the Chucky Mall Watches him wallor in some plastic balls The band sucks and the pizza's cold And you eat it with a slobberin' four year old In Chucky Cheese [censored]
Puke with pepperoni still smells the same You waste a paycheck on a video game Lined up out the door like The Stones are in town There ain't enough Chucky ass whippin's To go round
In Chucky Cheese [censored] I'm in Chucky CHEEEEEEEESE [censored]! Squallin' youngins and a skee ball bell In Chucky Cheese [censored]
I did two tours of duty in Vietnam Fightin' jungle rot and braving napalm But they couldn't torture me half as well As them little birthday $@*#*@*$! In Chucky Cheese [censored]
Chucky Cheese [censored] I'm in CHUCKY CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESE [censored]!! Ow Wo Wo
[Spoken] And if you haven't taken your child to Chucky Cheese you suck as a parent!

My grandchildren love that place... I just wish I had grandchildren, but if I did I wouldn't take them to a place like Chucky's.

The closest Chuck E Cheese to us is 2 hours away, yay!!! So, we've only been once with our son, and my step daughter was with us at the time, so she took him around to play all the games and my husband and I just relaxed and watched. Well, as much as you can relax at a Chuck E Cheese that is. And I agree, the pizza really sucked!

I refuse to go anywhere that caters to kids, that includes Disney. I don't like children, even my own sometimes... DQ does allow her children to play in her hair...one was lost for 3 weeks and tehy had to call in search and rescue to find him! (oops, am I in the wrong thread?)

I don't mind CC; not sure what the big deal is.
Kids go nuts, but so what? It's created specifically for that.
As long as it's clean, what's the problem with it?

CC's around here have been a hotbed for trash... more than one have been forced to closed, and I don't think the remaining two even have their liquor licences anymore.
Most families avoid the place here.

What makes you think it is clean? http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0FSZ/is_2_25/ai_n18608573/pg_1?tag=artBody;col1 How many snot-nosed toddlers does it take to spread a cold? One.

My post wasn't saying that it was clean, but that IF it were clean, then I wouldn't have a problem with it.
Now, if it's not kept clean, then you have a germ-fest just waiting to happen.

FINALLY ABOVE the gnat line

I've never cared for Chuck E Cheese - its way too loud and the pizza doesn't taste very good. We have another establishment about 40 mins away that has goofy golf, bumper boats, a game arcade, and other fun things that isn't nearly as noisy. Kids have a great time. On Saturdays, they can get in really cheaply and get pizza and coke thrown in.
