Munchs Make Believe Band is going the way of DZ Discovery Zone.

Munch, Jasper T. Jowls, Pasqually the Chef, and Helen Henny.

But, one change they have been doing slowly is removing the animatronics from some of their locations.

Those Friday nights as a kid were memorable.

It was like going to Six Flags when my parents took us Chuck E. Cheese.

Sometimes I go with family and I look at where it used to be and its just soulless.
