Theory: At any given time at a Chuck E. Cheese there will always be at least one hyper unsupervised kid running around while mom or dad sit at a booth totally unaware of the chaos around them.
Proof: The other day, we took the kids to said pizza/entertainment establishment at a little after 10:00 a.m. on a Wednesday. It was just us and another family there at that hour. Surely my theory wouldn’t hold true, right? Let me paint a picture: mom sits at a table eating a salad (who does that at 10 a.m.?), we are at the prize counter when one of her kids runs up to us begging for more t
okens. It took him an unusual amount of time before he realized we weren’t his family. But the topper – as we were leaving, two of the boys were running up the ski-ball ramp dunking the balls into the 10,000 point ring while mom continued to eat her salad (after 40 minutes, it still wasn’t gone!)
And so my theory still stands…
