The History Of Chuck E Cheese’s In Lexington Ky

Here is the 10th installment of season 2 of my “History Of” series
In this video I go over the history of the Chuck E. Cheese’s location in Lexington Kentucky. Which is also the final history episode on a Kentucky Chuck E. Cheese location.
This video idea goes back to mid 2021 when I was trying to figure out what Chuck E. Cheese location to do next after Paducah. I then decided to continue covering the Kentucky locations and chose Lexington since it was the last location I had yet to talk about.
I just want to thank all the websites and people who helped me complete this movie!
Shoutout to Chatty Chuck E for helping out with Info & pictures!

    You should call the new name of 2.0: the end of childhood

    You know, growing up I never went to a Chuck E Cheese in the Lexington area even once, because pretty much everyone knew Gattitown was better. Every party I went to as a kid was there.

    I worked there during the incident involving the early shut down and you have a couple things off, firstly the managers son (not daughter) broke his leg and the other manager was sick with the flu, but it certainly was confusing going in only to be sent home

    This month, I'm going to Chuck E. Cheese's in Tallahassee, FL. This is one of the few 3-stage locations that did not originate as a Showbiz Pizza.

    One possible reason that the Lexington Chuck E Cheese's fell into such disrepair might be due to the decline of the surrounding neighborhood. The Woodhill area became known as a rough area, and I remember that some pizza delivery places wouldn't even deliver to some of the apartment complexes there, because of the danger. It's hard to get parents to bring their kids to a restaurant within an area with that kind of reputation. That had to affect their bottom line.

    I went to Showbiz in Lexington around 1983. I played the sit down version of Star Wars Arcade over and over. The animatronics were cool - but creepy (I was 8 years old)

    As some who grew up going to this location it’s so amazing to see someone actually covering it.

    I grew up with this location and had so many childhood memories of Showbiz pizza. I even remember when it switched over to Chuck E Cheese. My daughter is 19 and had her childhood there too.

    I Was Afraid of the Chuck E Cheese Mascot When I Was Little in the Late 2000s And The Last Time I Went to Chuck E Cheese's Location in Lexington was 6 Years ago, I Haven't Been Back To that Location Since.

    Enjoyed the vid! I grew up in the early 90's and can say the animatronics are what made the experience for me and my friends. I realize they were a bit creepy, but I have such nostalgia from it. And at that age, we were more amazed by them. It's a shame they decided to get rid of the stage and characters for bland back-drops or TV screens (as if kids need more screens). It's kind of depressing Lol Maybe the animatronics will make a come back!
