The Meteoric Rise and Tragic Downfall of Chuck E. Cheese

Kamikoto is now running a Black Friday Sale and is offering my viewers an extra USD50 off on any purchase with discount code HOOK50, on top of our special offers. Go to kamikoto.com/HOOK50 to get your Japanese steel knives today, and get an extra USD50 off with code HOOK50
There was a time when Chuck E. Cheese was the destination of choice for any birthday. It had everything a kid could dream of: pizza, arcade games and animatronics. They quickly became an industry giant. But their shine wouldn't last forever. Soon, Chuck E. Cheese would go from the place to be, to a failing company. So to survive, they came up with a fake sob story about an orphan who couldn't remember his birthday.
People loved it. It had saved Chuck E. Cheese - or so they thought.

    People said the golden era of Chuck E. Cheese's lasted until 2012 since that was the last year avemger chuck was used and the last year they cared about the animatronics.

    You really got this wrong. The worked for Chuck E. Cheese as a manager for 6 years. Showbiz pizza time had billy bob. Chuck E. Cheese became a competitor and had the rat. Showbiz bought out Chuck E. Cheese and after test marketing found out that Chuck E. Cheese was liked better. Then they moved all stores to Chuck E. Cheese but the corporate name was showbiz pizza time.
