Rapping Chuck E. Cheese Animatrons

According to Boing Boing, "There is a movement of Chuck E. Cheese and Showbiz fans that are buying the old robots and setting them up in their homes or garages."

The modified bots here have been programmed to rap Bubba Sparxxx's "Ms. New Booty."

Here's a video from YouTube:

Also on YouTube, user CEC001 seems to have uploaded a number of old internal Chuck E. Cheese/Show Biz training videos. And here's a video of a rather enthusiastic patron dancing along with the animatronic band.

That's...yeah, I'm not sure if that's awesome or terrifying.

@Prairie: Possibly. Hard to tell. As the creator of Atari, I'd think so. As the creator of Showbiz/CEC, which is a wack-ass place, maybe not. Who knows.

@Smylie: Exactly. I think it's both. And it kinda gets at what I was trying to say to Prairie -- who knows what Nolan Bushnell would think of it.
