Rock-a-fire Explosion

I dunno guys... this has to go *somewhere*...

When I was a kid, these used to be in full operation and were well-maintained at Showbiz Pizza. That place was a hoot. The pizza was good, there were tons of video games as well as other games, and the soulless, godless, affronts-to-nature-and-all-that-was-sacred abominations animatronics were... amusing.

You '80's kids and your creepy circus sideshow things!

Seeing that as a little kid would have resulted in severe psychological trauma.

I really hope hey didn't actually play that kind of song back in the day, at least.

No but the guy that bought these programmed them to play such songs. I watched a documentary yesterday about it and, quite frankly, that guy gives me the creeps, big time. The animatronics have absolutely nothing on him.

The guy who invented these seems like a normal, very intelligent guy and he's very successful. The fans in the documentary, however... look, I know it's not nice to judge people but they just make me feel uncomfortable.

That's kind of mean. I wouldn't want him alone with my kids but he likely has some kind of condition and that's not funny.
