The wobbly video shows a group of adults mulling inside Chuck E. Cheese's restaurant in Susquehanna Twp. Suddenly it pans left and captures a fight breaking out.
The 22-second clip, uploaded Sunday to YouTube, is the latest example of what police describe as a disturbing and bizarre crime trend: escalating violence among adults at a place designed for children's birthday parties.
Susquehanna Township police have been called to the restaurant on Union Deposit Road 12 times in the past year for reports of disorderly conduct, assault and theft. Those calls have resulted in 13 arrests, including six women -- five adults and a juvenile -- charged with disorderly conduct in a Saturday-night brawl.
In 2007, police responded to the restaurant 18 times for similar offenses.
"It's madness, absolute madness," Susquehanna Twp. Police Chief Robert A. Martin said.
Martin said he believes much of the violence stems from ongoing disputes among people who bump into each other in the restaurant. "They see each other at Chuck E. Cheese, and before you know it an argument turns into something physical."

LOL
Before I left L.A. (about 10 years ago) gangbangers had taken over a local all-night Jewish deli. ....in a good neighboorhood. After 10:00pm, enter at one’s own risk.
I took my son to Chuckie Cheese. ONCE. I told him, “I will do many things with you, but I will never, EVER, enter that place again.”
What a zoo! I can still hear the din, see the chaos, taste the really AWFUL food.
Maybe it’s because they first ate the pizza. Chuck E Cheese “pizza” is the most godawful concoction of semi-cooked glop I’ve ever tried to digest. Maybe the arguers were just reacting to indigestion and taking it out on other patrons.
Ours closed down years ago. Their pizza was horrible.............
They may be Orthodox Jews. Last time I was in Synagogue I heard my rabbi say Takeya before the shofar was sounded.
I got caught in a Chuck E. Cheese one time, the result of an overgenerous offer to assist with a birthday party. Blaring music, flashing lights, an audioanimatronic rat, screaming kids, sticky floors, jammed rest rooms, and no alcohol. I’m a reformed man now, because if I ever to get sentenced to Hell that’s exactly where I’m gonna end up.
To be charitable, the mother may have been going for a phonetic "Portia"
But at least they have beer.
I wonder if married people ever go there, or if it’s just like a bus station/transfer depot for divorced parents.

More likely, Porsche.
Those wacky Pennsylvania Dutch. . . .
Most health inspectors will close down a place for rats. Chucky Cheese advertises that they have a large rat.
Besides, their pizza is about the worst I have ever had. Nothing redeeming about that place. (although I do like the occasional game of skee-ball or whack-a-mole).

Little doubt a lot us us got the connection, Gdad. You prefer something more PC?
Their is a slice of culture in our midst characterized by high crime, absent fathers and high teen pregnancy. One of the characteristics of this culture is naming your children offbeat names in an attempt to give them an “African” flavor. This is simply an observation of reality and not a racist statement. This particular culture does not represent all blacks, but democrat/liberal politicians are empowered by keeping them in this state.
Well that should be pronounced "porsch"
I saw the title and I thought this was about Chuckie Cheese Schumer.
