I was working literally the day before you came. Meeting you would have been the coolest thing to experience at work. James was the great guy you saw waking up Chuck when you first came inside. He's one of our talented kitchen guys. Very friendly coworker of mine and I enjoy talking when I see him.
CEC should turn one of their locations into a Pizza Time Theater and make it look exactly like it did in the early 80s…with the old school uniforms, theater carpet, etc
About this location's history, this CEC location used to have the Balcony Stage, The C Stage, and the 2 Stage. Pretty soon, it's going to be a dance floor and a video wall for the 2.0 remodel. This location has been through 3 different remodels, the first remodel was in 1989, the second remodel was in December 1995 when it received the skytubes and the 2 Stage to replace the C Stage, the third remodel was in June 2006 at that time they relocated their 2 Stage to the other side of the building which wasn't part of CEC, and their getting remodeled again this month, which is their fourth remodel, which means it will lose their 2 Stage for the dance floor and the video wall. For the animatronics, it used to be on the left side of the building where you pass by the soda fountains.
Wonderful store tour! I’m always glad to see former PTT stores still going, this particular stage is also in pretty good shape! With the exception of Munch. However, it’s always great to see these guys working regardless!
At first I thought Jasper was in perfect condition until I noticed he never blinked... Staring into our soul indeed! Seeing Corona's Road Stage gone made me upset but your videos make me feel better as always! Excited for the visit 100 video soon!
Im not gonna lie..... I think once they see the performance numbers for stores dwindle that dont have the bots and see northridge thrive because it does have the bots theyre gonna realize their mistake but the damage will have already been done and theres no turning back unless they make all new bots
Hey, Chris Bower. In case you didn't know, the Road Stage in Canada, the 2-Stage locations in Ventura, California, and Mira Mesa, California had Munch's PTT mask.
Aaaaand they are destroyed. You really got to this one just in time. 5 more left. 2-stage doesn't bother me as much though since it's the only stage type confirmed to survive.
That’s crazy that I stumbled on your channel Chris. I’m from Flint as well, should check out the old Pirates Park site. Heck I’ll go with ya. You still live here in Flint?
Yeah I did a video at pirates Park a couple years back if you want to check it out. And no I moved away from there quite a while ago. But my family still lives there and I go back for visits every now and again, it'll always be my hometown!
ima do some research and see if there is a stage around my state so i can see it ( the only stage i have ever seen was the half body CEC robot in like 2015 )
I assume you mean the alpha ? Because no Chuck e animatronic is half bodied I’m a modern day CEC but his legs are covered up so is that what your taking about ?
yo chris can you visit my friends local cec which is at parma ohio and it has phase 5 and the logo is chuck waving! and if you explore it my friend will be so happy so please go there!❤
This was my location growing up!!! Good to see it without all the crazy kids yet I miss the giant playground and other motion "rides" they had in the early to mid-2000s. This feels so empty because of this. I honestly don't even know if it was a PTT or not then or if they moved on to the stage 2 stages as that was so long ago. Glad the animatronics still work well. If the food wasn't trash and I could go there when there's no one there without getting arrested, then sure I'll go I guess for nostalgia.😊 Edit spelling
Before it closed down nearly a decade ago, the CEC in New London, Connecticut also had a 2-stage, if I recall. The first CEC I ever visited. 6:57 Of all the artwork, the one piece I would love to own is the Helen sassy headshot. Slight nitpick, but the thumbnail doesn't make you look very flattering. Just my 2 cents.
So there's really no more phase 2 or 3 wall art around? It seems that all the cec locations you've been visitng lately only have the wall art from phase 4 and beyond now..

thats my childhood CEC location! went to it alot as a kid. it used to have a kids playplace with a racecar on top. Great memories!

The CEC in West Hills California just removed their road stage for 2.0 a couple days ago sadly which sucks
Nooooooo!
@@3105ace When? That’s sad
How many are left?
@@Peq92 3 Road Stages are left in the United States and Canada now

They took away our animatronics from the National City location recently :"c
Glad to see there still some nearby, for the moment.
Happy Valentine’s Day, Chris! ❤
Same to you!
LOL the Jasper staring into your soul bit had me dying 🤣 love it. Love your channel!!
Thank you!
Fun fact! The 2 stage is low to the ground because there isn’t a lot of space ceiling wise. Also some people call this the Mira mesa location.
It IS the Mira Mesa location. There used to be more CECs in San Diego but I'm sure they all closed except this classic
Im confuse, is the one in Hibert st?
1-stage: 15
2-stage: 6
3-stage: 4
Road stage: 3
2 road stages now, Corona removed their stage
@@realrtot9138 No there's 3 (not counting Corona)
@@jasburger yooo whatt thats crazy, which ones just got removed
@@WhoDidWhat17 The only 3 remaining are Norwalk, Albemarle, and the one in Canada
@@jasburger dang that's sad. Norwalk the only decent one out of the three
Happy Valentine’s Day Chris 🎉
Love your videos 😊
Happy Valentine’s Day Chris
Same to you!
Amazing Video! Also Is Kinda Sad To See Them Getting Destroyed Tomorrow :( Also Happy Valentine’s Day! ❤️💕
Thank you! Hope you had a good one as well 🙂
Also I just read Marvin’s museum in Michigan is closing cause of a meijer coming in but from the article they say they will move somewhere else
Why? I never been there
Yeah I heard, it's very sad that place was really special
Sadly as of a couple days ago the stage set was removed at this location and replaced with a massive stage 😭😭☹️☹️☹️
I did not know that the chuck e cheese in San Diego have the animations
happy Valentine’s day and thank you I go here I’ve been waiting for you to do it.
Happy vday to you as well!
I went there last November!
Cool Video!
Cool!
Great video! Any special plans for episode 100?
You will find out very soon!
@@SetsStreetsEats awsome
@@DFMEngineering I’m Guessing It’s Cec Head Quarters!
nice video!!!
This got 2.0 in I think March
Hey, Chris Bower. In case you didn't know, the Road Stage in Canada, the 2-Stage locations in Ventura, California, and Mira Mesa, California had Munch's PTT mask.
Ventura's been gone for a bit. idk if any other stores have PTT munch mask, but as of now I only know Mississauga and Mira Mesa
Thanks for that update!
Very cool store in my opinion
This location has 2.0 booths for some reason

Wierd to see 2.0 booths in a store that hasn’t been remodeled yet
it’s gonna start on
Thursday
@@DaMeaunIt’s gonna what.
@@DaMeaunno it’s gonna start next week
Yeah I kind of figured they must have put those in first and there must be the rest of the remodel coming soon
That booths is from vista, ca

The stage now removed for 2.0. I always thought the stage is going to survive due to CEC not giving a sh*t about the location, but they did.
I love how Mr Munch is like he doesn't know what is going on, lol
I did enjoy this video
ima do some research and see if there is a stage around my state so i can see it
( the only stage i have ever seen was the half body CEC robot in like 2015 )
probably not
I assume you mean the alpha ? Because no Chuck e animatronic is half bodied I’m a modern day CEC but his legs are covered up so is that what your taking about ?
@@NoodleNuggz well i cant really remember if he was half body or half of his body was covered
Wish you would’ve been to National City, but sadly they got 2.0 😔
Who else is here to find comments about Riley 💀
2 more 😮😮😮
You should tour the chuck e cheese in Covina it just got the 2.0 remodel.
RIP West Hills and Corona's Road Stages... Now the road stage is more endangered than the 3 stage.
Theres only three left?
not for long Tallahassee and Pineville are being removed soon (tallahassee most likely) which will leave only 2 3-Stages (Altoona and Billings)
@@cec_oregon Yes, and 4 three stages.
@@WhoDidWhat17 We don't know that yet, they have been pushing those two back for a long time. They were originally supposed to be removed last year.
yo chris can you visit my friends local cec which is at parma ohio and it has phase 5 and the logo is chuck waving! and if you explore it my friend will be so happy so please go there!❤
I have always wanted to go here but they are apparently getting remodel tomorrow but I don’t know how true that is.
That's disappointing to hear. I was hoping they had more time 😞
Do you need Video editor or Thumbnail maker ?
I probably do but unfortunately this channel is not big enough to employ one yet, but hopefully someday soon 🙂

Oh you're not wrong about that lol
@@WhoDidWhat17 It was? I swear it was a 2-stage. I'm probably wrong and I just mistook one for the other.

There's a few Phase 3 stores left, some with some Phase 2 decor.

🤣
Hey Chris can you talk to Chucky if the Avenger walkaround character is in the room
Well his eyes are definitely shut and I probably shouldn't even acknowledge him until Chuck leaves the room lol
Soo i actually called yesterday, and They Told Me the Remodel Starts Next Week
NOOOOOOOOOO
it was supposed to start in January but they delayed it to february
That looks like a 1 stage
It’s two stage cuz the tv is between Chuck and Helen so it’s two stage
@@Joshua0210 Usually 2 stage Means when the thing rotates but okay
