History

Chuck E. Cheese's Buffet

On June 24, 2002 CEC's Waco, TX prototype buffet debuted in a 6,100 SF Small-Town store.[2]

Remodels

In October 2022, the Waco location would undergo its 2.0 remodel.

"Local Chuck E. Cheese Mascot"

During the 2020 pandemic, Kade Perry, an employee at the Waco location, stood outside of the establishment looking through the windows, upset about not being able to work. This would be the second time of having local news' attention--as on September 6, 2019 Kade received a tattoo of a vintage Chuck E. Cheese's logo on his right shoulder as a birthday present.[3]

The employee would ultimately end up being laid off after a photo of allegedly him in the Chuck E. Cheese mascot costume on the toilet started to spread across the internet.
