Cops called to kid-friendly venues more than strip club

Cops called to kid-friendly venues more than strip club

Which venue would you think gets more reports of trouble calls: Déjà Vu Show Bar or Chuck E. Cheese's and John's Incredible Pizza? The strip club, or the family-friendly pizza shops?

Well, the kid's birthday bash spots take the cake. They've each been home to more peace disturbances in the last three years than the club, according to statistics gathered from law enforcement agencies.

And oddly enough, so have Skateland, Fox Theater, Riley's Tavern, Riverwalk and Rabobank Arena.

We asked for statistics to see how often police get called to various kid's venues around town, as well as some other popular non-kid's venues to compare. We also looked at how many annoyances were reported for each.

Among the family entertainment venues, Chuck E. Cheese received the most peace disturbances, with nearly 30 percent of the calls for service being for just that.

Maybe Chuck E. should put a VIP lounge in the back.

I think Chuck E Cheese does already sell beer.  That's what this guys that works here said, that's why he'd even contemplate taking his kids there.  LOL!

I hate Chuck E. Cheese's. After an hour in that place I'm usually in the bathroom with the muzzle of my pistol in my mouth trying to work up the courage to pull the trigger. Seriously, the noise in that place is excruciating.

Might I suggest putting the number to the local suicide prevention hotline on your cell phone?

I haven't been to a strip club in over a decade.  Remind me how that "focused" part works.

As it turns out, it is a national as well.
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB122878081364889613.html

They sometimes end up as riots, where people throw chairs and tables at each other. Chuck E. Cheese's has disturbances partly because of parents who are involved in bitter divorce cases mixed with their children. I remember Chuck E. Cheese's as Showbiz Pizza. Their pizza was okay at best. Also, it is popular with college students because it has beer and food at a cheap price. A good way to spend the night.

They asked me if I could drive a truck.
