Chuck E. Cheese Sells Booze to Minors!

Posted by SunnyChanel

 

Yup, there is now even more drama at Chuck E. Cheese. The restaurant chain claims to be a place where “a kid can be a kid.” Does being a kid include guzzling down booze? If so, they’re living up to their tagline.

According to the NBC Chicago news site, a suburban Chuck E. Cheese in Batavia, ILL was busted selling for alcohol to a minor. This was a result of an undercover sting where the police had high school and college students attempt to buy booze from local establishments.

What baffles me is that Chuck E. Cheese sells alcohol in the first place. I, for one, had no idea. I guess when you get a slew of screaming kids in one place, some parents really need to get their drink on. But, you’d think an establishment where 80 percent of clientele is underage, that Chuck E. Cheese would be way more diligent about who they serve.

Did you know Chuck E. Cheese had alcohol and do you think it’s okay to sell booze in a “kid’s” place?

That was what I thought when I saw the headline... do you really need to sell alcohol at Chuck E. Cheese? So, it's not bad enough if someone drives home drunk from a bar, but now they get to drive home drunk with their kids in the car after a fun-filled day at Chuck E. Cheese... ridiculous....

OK, in one way, I wonder why the heck they sell booze at a place that's just for kids. . . but then again, have you ever been to a Chuck E. Cheese? I could use a drink just thinking about it!

Wow, who thought Chuck E. could get even crazier than it already is.  A decade ago, when I helped chaperone a kids' birthday party that my son was invited to, was the. last. time. I. shall. ever. set. foot. in a C.E.C.

I don't understand the connection between place for children and alcohol. I had no idea that they served alcohol. It just seems unnecessary.
