Chuck E. Cheese is a cesspool! I had not been there in 8 or so years but upon receiving a b-day party invitation I found myself with my 2 & 10 year at Chuck E. Cheese. The first thing I noticed was that you no longer have to purchase pizza & tokens to get in the door...admission is free. So I notices whole families sharing a soda (unlimited re-fills) - parents milling around as kids ran amuck. Also, I have never seen so many pairs of house shoes, flannel pajama bottoms, slut tats, bare stomachs (most of which should've been covered), gold teeth, missing teeth, and such in one place. We made our way to the party table and took some tokens to go play until "party time". With both my children at my side, I put a token in a toddler size car and lifted my son onto the seat as my daughter played a neighboring game. A little boy of about 7 started to climb onto the seat next to my son and I kindly told him that he needed to wait his turn. He promptly replied "no". He continued to climb onto the car and pushed my son aside (it was a ride for 1 as the "steering wheel" was in the middle of the seat). I told him that he needed to get down and get a token from his mom and wait his turn. "my momma ain;t got not tokens. She said for me to ride now." It was then I noticed a large woman eyeing me. I think she was making a shank out of one of the plastic drink cups. I took my son down and allowed the boy to have the ride to himself. At that moment my daughter came and told me a kid took her tickets. We then went to my friend..told her we had to go...and proceeded to the car where we took mini baths with hand sanitizer.
