Title: Hell on earth exists! Post by HeadhurtinMama on Mar 2nd, 2007, 9:13pm It is Chuck E Cheese on a Friday night! We took the boys there tonight for dinner. My youngest turned 2 two weeks ago and my oldest turns 4 on Sunday. Well between all the other kids running around and my oldest having a full blown hissy fit when it was time to leave, I am so glad to be home! Don't ever want to go there again... Bridget |

Title: Re: Hell on earth exists! Post by Cathi04 on Mar 3rd, 2007, 2:57pm LOL! Turts, Chuck E Cheese is a parents' nightmare! It is a pizza joint with animated figures that sing and dance on a stage, there are all sorts of Kids' games, like pinball, etc. As the kids rack up scores, they are awarded tickets which can be turned in for prizes-MOST of which are penny candies...soo they get gobs of em.and eat em while they run around the entire joint, terrorizing the other "guests" and consuming yet more sugar! There is NO redeeming quality there at all...sorry, Brew, even the beer doesn't count! When my kids were little, they would beg to go there and eat cardboard pizza with catsup for tomato sauce. I would go hide in the Elvis room(named for the animated Character who sung onstage there).....where the kids had nothing to do, sip a wine cooler and rue the day they ever built one of those abominations in MY town! >:( My heart goes out to you, Bridget........my suggestion is you expose your kids to lobster! It's no more expensive than the tokens to play all those games, and they will NEVER add it to the menu at Chuck's! ;) Who would EVER encourage a kid to act like a heathen is a restaurant, anyway???? I hope I haven't worded this too strongly......... Cathi ;;D |

Well, Cath, I wasn't claiming it was a destination. Merely that there was one thing that made it just a tad more tolerable. Even tolerable is a bad word here. ;;D |

Title: Re: Hell on earth exists! Post by Linda_Howell on Mar 3rd, 2007, 10:48pm For all who have asked? Like from another country entirely who does not have access to this...uh...um... TOTAL FREAKING INSANITY. Cathi's assessment of what is a chuck-e-cheese, is an enormous understatement. She is being way too kind to this place where parents are held hostage with noise to deafen and with no other purpose than to seperate them from their dollars. It has no redeeming quality. The pizza is really bad and more expensive than it's very good counterpart. It does serve as an a bad example though. |

Title: Re: Hell on earth exists! Post by cynjeep89 on Mar 3rd, 2007, 11:27pm The first, last and only time I was at Chuck E Cheese was many, many years ago. I went there with a friend of mine and his kids, Lauren and Anthony. Lauren and Anthony decided they wanted to go and play on the sliding board. To go down the sliding board, they had to climb up a wooden ladder, go in thru one door into a fort type structure and out thru another door which led to the sliding board. We sat and watched kids go up the ladder, thru the doors and down the slide for about 5 minutes and then noticed that kids were going in the fort but not coming out. We heard a little mumbling and then cries and screams began flooding out of the fort. We had a hostage situation on our hands!!!! A little boy named Tony was blocking the door to the slide and was telling the kids that they couldn't go down the slide until they gave him all of their money. I now wonder if this kid's last name was Soprano? |

Title: Re: Hell on earth exists! Post by Brewcrew on Mar 4th, 2007, 10:39am There can be no doubt - Chuck E. Cheese is Beelzebub himself, and the doorway to his lair is the gate to hell. DO NOT look him directly in the eyes. If I had walked through the gates of hell and was about to come face to face with Mephistopheles himself, I would want unfettered access to the alcohol. |

Title: Re: Hell on earth exists! Post by Charlie on Mar 5th, 2007, 8:32pm Hell is also my friend's experience. He decided to get the paperwork started for his Social Security application. He was the only one in the building and had to take a number. It was #30! Employees, including the bored to death security guard, looked at him for five minutes before letting him into the sacred realm. ::) Charlie |
