And wow, not only did this place have everything show biz pizza related and the rock afire show, but it had all this amazing merchandise of things from the 80s and 90s. Wow, this place looks like it was awesome, I can't believe it burned down.
What a great place. I'm so sad to hear about the fire. That Billy Bob Ferris Wheel was my favorite ride at Showbiz! I was very young when it was still Showbiz. I think mine may have been the first to get the Rockafire show. I heard it was Jacksonville, FL. My local Showbiz was Jacksonville, but there are 2 CECs in Jacksonville, and I'm not sure if the one in Arlington was ever a Showbiz. My local Showbiz was on the Jacksonville/Orange Park line in a free-standing building. The other one is in a shopping center.
amanda engelman funny, the Ferris wheel thing was how I first got into the Rockafire because this arcade in new Hampshire had it but by the time I found it i was too big to fit in it
Well they burned up in a fire. (I'm being serious the ones you're looking at in this video later burned down because the guy left a fog machine on for too long and it overheated.)
+Rolfe Dewolfe Replica - Snapper is about the best show tech around when it comes to the Rock-afire. He could probably learn any pneumatic setup you put in front of him. He knows what he's doing and he's also a perfectionist when it comes to these things. If I acquired a Rock-afire show, he would be the first person I called for help. Just great.
The 88 Granmy show is a good show and well programed in most places. However; Dook's programing on that show tape looks terrible. The animator didn't even make his ears flop. It's very haphazard, sluggish looking programing. In fact; it looks like Pasqually programing. Showbiz obviously did the animation for this and not CEI. Is this when Showbiz started tying movements together onto one button on the control board? If I owned a show and wanted to run this show tape for people; I would reprogram Dook completely.
It burnt down in October 2010. Right now he is contacting Aaron or something for repairs for the show. And insurance about the fire idk. When it's back in business I don't know what he is going to do. I think you can have birthdays if he reopens it.
do you have the elvis medley in english? i would love to see beach bear do the song one on one. just some ideas. i fave others but they include songs the rock a-fire explosion never recorded but i think it would be neat to see them do.
It burned down. Air compressor for the rockafire was left on all night. If you are looking for a rockafire show I would recommend scandia golf and games, or a creative engineering tour.
@fatzGeronimo Yes its open to the public...just make a reservation. Snaplarue@yahoo.com. No didnt win the lottery...just been a packrat for years. Sold my DeLorean and bought the building which was a portable school building with dingy grey carpet,panneling walls, 2 pencil sharpeners on the wall and a giant dry erase board. Matt you know I gotta outdo everyone...lol. It helps to have a wild imagination.

What an amazing place! It's a great thing that these items ended up in such good hands (rather than as scrap.)
Best of luck to you!

So cool! Its even cooler to see a totally complete Rock-A-Fire Explosion of all the characters still up and running!
You know that near October 2010, The building with this show caught on fire.
Nice to see you back in action! Can't wait to see it.
Rip
It's finally finished! :D Glad to see the show running perfectly, along with the rest of the museum. I'll try and get down there soon.
This show looks, and acts better than Aaron's show.
Too bad it burned

+Jonathan Woodliff He also worked for CEI! We are good friends with him and it's a shame his building burned down 😕😢
Oh yeah I know he did. He's messaged me a few stories about those days over the years. :p
Imagine if they were Privately Fan owned chuck e cheese’s 3-stages.
Mitzi and Dooks masks look melted
Mitzi likes to tan in the beach and dook goes with Mitzi c:
@@Turbram8460 what
this is the most amazing set up I have ever seen! Did you win the lottery? How did you get all of this stuff?
Snap, do you still have the full footage of this?

I thought the only complete show was Aaron's and the one at Billy Bobs Wonderland? How did you get your hands on them?!
He bought a "show" from Aaron Fechter.
Theirs still a few shows around. Like at goofy gas and smittys super service
were is this
It doesn't exist anymore. It was burned down in a fire
This is sad, this show was better than Aaron's show... Aaron's show isn't perfect, he needs a new mask for Dook and new drums for Dook...
This WAS one of Aarons shows.... i am one of the only people who know about what REALLY happened between him and snap.....
Oh, do you know what he did with the destroyed bots after the fire though?
+Showbiz CEC Apparently Chris Thrash bought them to repair them, but this hasn't been confirmed. they most likely were destroyed entirely....
I have a photo of the bots after the fire, they look nearly unusable. But that would make sense since he sold his second show.
+Showbiz CEC You do? send me a link, I'd like to see it....
I think mitzi needs to get a new make up artist lol, jk anyway fatz is still rockin' and rolling I LOVE it :) Keep it up!!
Is this your show
does the animatronic E.T work?
thnks Danny...hopefully..I can somewhat bring it back.
NONO SO SADDD
Either this guy is very tall or that place is tiny.
both (kind of)
Is it just me or is the stage too small for the rock afire explosion
It's just you dumbass.
This place burned down didnt it?
Unfortunately, it did :'(
+brolylss01 It only lasted 9 months and burned down in October, 2010.
Awesome! I've got to have my birthday here! How much is it to reserve for a party.
