San Antonio, TX (6874 Ingram Rd)

6874 Ingram Rd, Store #98 is a Showbiz Pizza/Chuck E. Cheese that opened on June 10, 1981 as a corporate ShowBiz Pizza Place with a Rock-Afire Explosion.

History
San Antonio opened its doors in June 10th, 1981 with a Rock-afire Explosion show. It was originally and currently a corporate-owned store. It was also the first ever Showbiz Pizza in the state of Texas. It was the only Showbiz Pizza ever to open right next to a Denny's. Like many other ShowBiz Pizza locations, it had a typical SPP layout seen in many other stores across the United States and would eventually receive the 1988 remodel years after it would open. Although some little documentation exists back in the ShowBiz days, it can be determined that San Antonio was one of several locations to receive an Uncle Klunk show package (and a Santa Claus retrofit package as well) sometime after opening. Like many ShowBiz locations in the late 1980s, San Antonio received the Showbiz Pizza Campground upgrade.

In around 1991/1992, San Antonio received Concept Unification which converted the show to Munch's Make Believe Band. In around the Mid-Late 1990's, San Antonio received the Phase 1 remodel which removed some early 90's decor, added new decor, SkyTubes, & received a new exterior. San Antonio remained this way until sometime in 2006-2007 when they received the 2005 Remodel which involved removing the Showroom Walls, Balcony Seating, an exterior repaint. They received a minor expansion in around 2012. They then received the Circles of Light stage in 2014 removing the 3-Stage bots and the stage was now behind it. They then received the 2.0 Remodel in July 2017 as one of the first of 7 2.0's removing the Circles of Light stage for a 2017 model Dance Floor (This also involved relocating the showroom to the right side wall as well).
