| - Oh, Chuck E. Cheese, how I have memories of hanging out in your urine-laden ball pit! I took my nieces and nephew here yesterday for a small family birthday part for one of them and I noticed that although the ball pit is gone, the bodily waste wasn't. Ah, children!
First of all, the kids (4, 3 and 1 year) LOVED it. The two older ones just went crazy on the smaller rides, playing the easy games and getting tickets and picking out their prizes. They thought the pizza was absolutely de-voon. They didn't see the wear and tear on the games - everything was perfect to them. And hey, it's made for kids. They're the ones they have to please.
Of course, as an adult after I was able to see beyond the chaos, I noted that a lot of the games were broken or ate tokens (which we all know are precious Chuck E. Cheese commodities). Of course the pizza was not good. And although my the kids didn't care, I was a little more than horrified to hear someone scream, "Dookie!" out of a tube slide.
It ain't my cup o' tea, but it ain't supposed to be.
But man am I glad I don't have kids of my own.
