There a CEC near Chicago that was recently shut down by the corporation after 300 calls and 2 arrests in the last 6 years: http://wgntv.com/2016/12/08/chuck-e-cheese-leaving-oak-lawn-after-multiple-violent-incidents/ http://wgntv.com/2016/12/08/chuck-e-cheese-leaving-oak-lawn-... IMO, and I worked in this business for a while, the problems have less to do with alcohol being served than the fact that CEC lets birthday parties mix with the rest of the public during operating hours. You can't place the games in a separate room for kids to play during parties, and parents want to feel like they should get some exclusivity for what they paid (when, in reality, you're just reserving space at the tables to eat pizza together). Tensions easily flare up in these situations.
