Has anyone heard of this indoor FEC called Go Go Bananas or something similar to that? It was like CEC but banana and monkey themed, and had rides. I remember going back in maybe 2005 or something like that, and they had one of those rides similar to the Dumbo ride at Disney World, except you controlled the height you were going at with a banana shaped lever. There was also this one miniature rollercoaster that was completely in the dark with all these glowing eyes looking at you and you went in circles. (I heard a few years back someone died on that ride or was badly injured ? ) Anyone else hear about it or been there before? I see that they still exist and I was wondering if anyone went there.

Yeah, back in 2011 some kid freed himself from the safety bar on a rollercoster and died at their Chicago location. (?) Poor kid. I found a video, though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4AfrBMwnk8 |

Now all it needs is a Rock-Afire show- who better than Fatz to entertain at a place called Go Bananas?

I actually went here for a Sunday School field trip, I am a bit surprise that they don't have animatronics, but then again, this isn't the 80s or 90s anymore....SIGH. |

Well then again, that was more the parents' fault. They let him get on a ride by himself, he was only 3!!! 3!!! WHO DOES THAT?!? I just don't understand some people. *no offense to people around here who have done that |

Nice place! I'm glad they're still open. It looks fun! And personally, I don't care as much about the fact that there are no animatronics. (No offense to those who do, though, I understand.) The games are my favorite part about Chuck E. Cheese's, anyway. Edited by cheez-loo-eez, Jul 31 2016, 02:11 AM.

I actually don't think he was alone, and even if he was, it's a small kiddie ride. It wasn't expedition everest or something. |
