Bubba Bear's Pizza Theatre Tokens

Bubba Bear's Pizza Theatre opened April 11, 1992 at 72-200 Dinah Shore Drive in Rancho Mirage, California, owned by Gordon and Yvonne Keenoy and managed by former Chuck E. Cheese GM Ed Sewell. The venue is one of the only documented installations of MEC (McIndoe Entertainment Corp) — a small shop founded by John McIndoe (a former Sid & Marty Krofft puppeteer who played "I.Q." in The Bugaloos). The custom band featured Bubba Bear plus three additional animatronic bears on saxophone, keyboard, and guitar, supported by a lip-syncing tree and animatronic flowers as backup singers, performing 17 songs plus a birthday number.
