CheeseVention (2004) - The Officially Unofficial Chuck E. Cheese & ShowBiz Pizza Fan Convention

- This fandom archival video highlights the very first Chuck E. Cheese fan convention from August 20th, 2004. CheeseVention hosts Jenn Waitt & J. Hubbard, in conjunction with ShowBizPizza.com, organized this event in Shiny Happy Danvers, MA at store number 478 (now defunct).
The event was a grand experiment. We didn't know who might all show up, or if very many people would show up at all. It was in the early days of the internet, long before social media, and most fans had never seen one another or even interacted beyond messaging on the ShowBizPizza.com message board. But Jenn & J pulled together quite the show, convincing Aaron Fechter to make a surprise appearance, and making quick adjustments when much of the event had to be diverted from Danvers to a secondary location at the last minute!
This video is a vintage work, cut together with multiple VHS players and the raw pre-digital editing shows. It was digitized onto DVD-format and sold following the event to help raise money for future CheeseVentions - which continued through 10 consecutive years!
Aside from those who purchased hand-produced copies in those early years, this program has largely been lost to time and a piece of CEC fandom lost media. But here it is (unedited, save for a few audio volume normalizations) for fans to see, experience, and watch for perhaps the first time ever.

He probably doesn’t have anything against it anymore
Wow, what a time capsule! I hope we get the other CheeseVention later in the future. That would be Great to see!
Absolutely! We only ever made DVD compilations for the first 6 events, but the plan is to post a new one to CZcams every week or two. There's also several "bonus features" for each event which will also be added.
@@showbizpizzacom Oh Boy! Thanks, I'll looking forward to seeing them!
Fun times! Wish more conventions like this would
happen
16:07 wow, Aaron Fechter never ages! He looks the exact same today!
PLEASE I gotta know how you got a hold of a prototype talking Billy bob walkaround

RatKingLiam approves of this Event. 👍
its cursed seeing aaron voice rolfe and earl without a costume
cheesevention 2 to 10 is coming.
I don’t know why they ended this in 2013. This is great.
the more I watch the cheesevention vids the more I wish I went to CEC more than once growing up and bond with the mascots before FNAF came into existince!
Because judging by the footage there was no FNAF cliches and everyone had one thing in common, making memories from Chuck and friends!
TBH there days I wish FNAF didn't exist so CEC/SPP fandom remained as a commuity to look back at simple times!
Oh yeah Oh yeah
So why did you guys have to switch locations? You're telling me CEC doesn't have private events?
It was *probably* more that they didn't want non-employees bringing in costumes and performing due to liability issues. That and the company had nothing to do with the event.
(uerelated) any chance on doing a pizza time documenting the disney-mgm shows and how they may have contributed to michael eisner’s club disney?
21:41

It was for this event
Wait did Aaron stay during the live shows? Or no
Aaron was there to pitch his idea for his "premium video" channel and stayed maybe half an hour. He didn't join us for the second portion of the event at the church in Salem.
