Parkersburg, WV (3500 Murdoch Ave)

3500 Murdoch Ave, was a corporate Showbiz Pizza Place/Chuck E. Cheese's that opened in 1983 (day and month unknown) and closed in 1998 (day and month unknown), after 15 years in operation. It was in a shopping center. This store would have a unique exterior with a very weird Chuck E. Cheese logo, which would be kept until they closed.

Showbiz Pizza Era (1983-Early 1990s)
This store would host its grand opening in 1983 as the 1st Showbiz Pizza Store in West Virginia, where the store would have the Rock-afire Explosion, featuring the Classic Stage. Not much is known about Parkersburg as a Showbiz Pizza Place, but they likely had the same features that every Showbiz location had at the time. This would include many arcade games, wood paneling, and a play-place. No images or videos of the Showbiz era have surfaced.

CEC Era (Early 1990s-1998)
Sometime in the early 1990s, likely 1991 or 1992, Parkersburg would remodel to a Chuck E. Cheese's Pizza, which involved the removal of the Rock-afire Explosion, and the addition of the 3-Stage. The exterior sign was replaced with a very weird one. This remodel involved also adding new games, redoing the interior, and getting new fixtures. It is unknown if they would ever receive the Phase 2, or Phase 3 game packages during this store's lifetime.

Post-CEC Era (1998-Present)
After the store closed, it would remain vacant for a short period until it and the shopping center it once inhabited were finally demolished. The former plot of the location is now some other shopping center.
