Chico, CA (966 East Ave)

Chico, CA (966 East Ave) was a Chuck E. Cheese's that opened in July 1982 with a Balcony stage, and closed on January 11th, 2011. This location was opened on July 1982 as a Pizza Time Theatre, and then lost the rights to continue operating under the Chuck E. Cheese's license in 2011, eventually a few months after, the entire store was closed all together.

Stages
The Chico, CA location opened with a balcony stage, and then at an unknown date, the balcony stage was converted in a c stage. At another unknown date, the c stage was converted in a 2 stage. On January 11th, 2011, the store had lost the rights to the Chuck E. Cheese's brand, meaning they could no longer use anything that was associated with Chuck E. Cheese's, so they retrofitted the characters and rid the stage of anything to do with MMBB.

The Last Years
During the last few years of Chico, CA operating under the Chuck E. Cheese's brand, the animatronics had completely stopped working with only some having little to no movements, it's been said that eventually they stopped using, prizes from corporate and instead replaced them with dollar store toys, it's also been said that they served frozen pizza they had gotten from a nearby vendor, which ultimately lead to corporate getting involved and revoking the franchise license.

Fun Zone & Pizza
Because the store could no longer operate under the Chuck E. Cheese's franchise, they had to improvise and went under the name Fun Zone & Pizza. This new brand was a complete former shell of what it once was, the record posters in the showroom were completely reskinned, the animatronics were retrofitted with generic mascot costumes, and the tvs were left on to play DirecTV, playing Nick Jr. shows.

Closure
This new brand wasn't pulling in a lot of money as the store owners intended, so they eventually had to close the store, they had sold everything from the store decor, arcade machines, to even the animatronics, though they would not work as their heads had been removed to fit into the generic mascot costumes.

The Later Years After Closure
The store was ultimately left to rot and sat abandoned for the good majority of the 2010s, during halloween on an unknown date, the store was converted into a spirit halloween type store, after that the store continued to be left abandoned until 2016, when the store was demolished.

Present Day
As it sits today, the original building is now completely gone, replaced by a new building, it is currently a DaVita Dialysis center.
