History

Hialeah opened on April 2nd, 1991, as a corporate-owned location. Hialeah opened with the 1988 Remodel including the CU decor, and the Road Stage. Around the mid-late 1990s, Hialeah replaced their logo with Coach Chuck and removed older 90's decor for newer decor, the removal of the ball pit for Sky Tubes, and Helen’s box was painted pink. In 2005, for unknown reasons, the 2000s Avenger Chuck Logo was installed, and one section of the awnings were removed. In 2008, They received their purple awnings. In 2009-2010, Hialeah remodeled to the 2004 Remodel which involved the removal of the showroom walls, removing older decor for newer decor, new booths, & adding purple walls. The store was also expanded taking over a China Buffet which moved to the other side of the shopping center. The Purple awnings were modified in March 2013. In 2015, Hialeah along with 6 other stores tested out the Lazer Challenge which was then removed by 2019-2020. In 2020, The Sky tubes and the Toddler Zone were removed. Hialeah remained like this until November 21st, 2021, when they received the 2.0 remodel and removed the Road Stage for the Dance Floor and had the Showroom moved to the other side of the store (which was completed in January 2022). Hialeah kept their purple awnings until December 2022 when they were removed and being replaced by 2.0 awnings which were installed by January 2023. The exterior was repainted covering the scars from the old awnings in April 2023. On January 3rd, 2024, The Trampoline Zone was added to the Location. Currently, as of January 2024, Hialeah still has the 2.0 Remodel and the Dance Floor.

Stages

Like all Road Stages at the time, Chuck wore his tuxedo & derby outfit And Helen's box was originally blue. Up and down curtains were added by the Late 90's, and Helen’s box was painted pink. In the Early-Mid 2000's, the tuxedo was replaced with the Cool Chuck outfit and a new TV was added. In 2012, Chuck's Cool Chuck outfit was replaced with the Avenger outfit. The hat was removed in September 2013. Between March-June 2015, Pasqually’s PTT arms were replaced with the standard drumming arms. In 2015 a flat screen TV was added. In 2016, Chuck E. received the new Rockstar jeans. Sometimes around 2017, Neon lights were added to the Road Stage. Munch's hat was removed in 2018 followed by the removal of Jasper's hat in 2019.

Around 2020 and 2021, The Road Stage fell into a state of disrepair, As Helen couldn’t move, Munch couldn’t touch his keyboard, And Jasper was completely aired down for all of 2021 and the spotlights (Including the wink Spotlight) were broken.

The stage was removed on November 28th, 2021, for the 2.0 Remodel and Dance Floor.

As of December 2023, Hialeah still has the Dance Floor and 2.0 Remodel.
