The last Chuck E. Cheese animatronic band in the world will exist in Northridge

From LA Times article, sheer fun trivia to learn the origins of Chuck E. Cheese:

“I thought I was buying a coyote,” Bushnell says. “Our code name for the place was Coyote Pizza.” Except Bushnell didn’t buy a coyote at all. The costume he brought to his team was actually of a rat.

Bushnell: “I got the costume, and I said, ‘How’s the coyote coming?’ They said, ‘It’s not a coyote. It’s a rat.’ So I had to change the name or get another costume. I changed the name to Rick Rat’s Pizza. The marketing department says, ‘No way.’”
