Exploring The Abandoned Chuck E Cheese’s in Matteson, IL • 5 Years Later

Awesome video! I was thrilled when I found that Tux Chuck E logo in the back

[@ChuckECheeseAntioch]

I saw you video. Nice job!

[@TheSquidShady]

Cec should reopen this location as a legacy location. Since they left pretty much everything here, they could remake whatever stage they had and get all of the old phase 3 artwork. This would be a nice location to come back. Even a party rock anthem cec music video was filmed back in 2012 at this location. This was a good location for it’s time

it's in a dead strip mall though. It would have to be in a different spot, but they could still open it there

[@RedX165]

Strip mall is basically dead there. Most of Matteson is just run down closed buildings.

[@colinnp-gp5kl]

@@RedX165 didn't the closing of Lincoln mall cause the area to die retail wise?

[@typicalnormalman]

amazing bro! keep up the good work!❤

[@BraydenFromWiiSportsOfficial]

I'm astonished they still left the games behind 😳

[@Chichimee]

That’s wild. A moment frozen in time of childhood nostalgia & crushed dreams

[@DaveysWonderfulWorld]

Holy crap that is so surreal even the sign and the walls are damaged. It’s just becoming an old ghost town.

[@NumbertoonsChaChia]

2:10 it’s impressive to see a pizza time theater logo on a door with Chuck E. In his PTT outfit.

[@EthanArtsAndStudios]

Wow, that’s been nearly half a decade 5 years ago after it closed, and yes, it looks like a bad area part of Matteson.

[@FortheloveofThomas84]

I remembered going today at Chuck E cheese many many times before it closed down this place brings back so many memories

[@spongegenerator]

When I was very young, I remember watching a bunch of Chuck E. Cheese videos that were taken in this location

[@Noah_Haunts]

I wish I could go there!

MY HOMEEE LOCATION 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 And I was JUST thinking about this place earlier today TOOO…. Ironically enough 👀 I’m here living in Alabama now (and I live probably bout 30 minutes or so from Huntsville… and I was DEVASTATED when they got rid of THEIR bots 🥺😔)!!! Now, believe it or not the channel “CEC BABIES” they used to be at this location, and I actually got the chance to tell “Ronnie” one day JUST HOW INSPIRING he was to me as a character performer… he’s ACTUALLY the person who even INSPIRED me to be a mascot to BEGIN WITH!! And just 6 months before moving out here to Alabama, God graced me with the opportunity in taking pleasure with working at the Chuck E. Cheese location in (Joliet, IL) where I worked in Game Room… and IRONICALLY ENOUGH (I was “THE MOUSE” HIMSELF 🤭) Best Job I EVER HAD!!!

[@That90sdudeexplores]

This was a very nice location the infamous video of avenger Chuck dancing to his version of party rock was filmed here.

[@Cool_guy279]

They needed to bring this location back

[@Il_tuo_wojak_di_quartiere]

That looks like the first recrations of the fnaf pizzerias

[@JamieMahon-z2s]

Why is it not up for sale

[@JulianoMiller-t9r]

I caught a bear with the blue t-shirt

[@justafriendlycryptid]

I feel this is the one that famous Gmod map is based on- I've not been there in reality but at least it's got a sort of home in the Virtual space.

[@CECHialeahOfficial07]

Hey I found a photo of Maddison TN Exterior in the 2000s! I’ll tag you

[@NiruoFaurel]

Wow dude.. where’s is that location Chuck E. Cheese located?

[@Korbs64]

Man they still got games in there to

[@ai_mayhemyt]

I wonder if the bots were still in there

[@LeathalAlchemistSlap]

No the COL was bot less

[@LKDAnimatronics]

After the fire, the 3-Stage bots (except for Chuck E) were sent to the Darien, IL location for parts

[@LeathalAlchemistSlap]

@@LKDAnimatronics Oh so chuck was saved?

[@LKDAnimatronics]

@@LeathalAlchemistSlap Most likely not, the Helen still exists though in a private collection

[@LeathalAlchemistSlap]

@ Ah

[@LeathalAlchemistSlap]

Yeah it's not safe there

[@ChuckE.CheesesIllinois]
