Local Love: Bullwinkle's Family Food N Fun

[calzephyr]

Many people are familiar with Showbiz Pizza and Chuck E. Cheese, which served up pizza and fun, but there was a third contender with pizza and an animatronic stage show--Bullwinkle's! Based on the world's only moose and squirrel cartoon team, the restaurants were like a mini indoor theme park for kids with the arcade, restaurant, stage show, and rustic decor. Bullwinkle's was a popular place for birthday parties and for many years Edmonton kids received a coupon for a free pizza with their final report card, much to my dad's consternation.

I don't know if the footage below is from the Edmonton or Calgary location or perhaps another location--those two are long closed. Technically three Bullwinkle's restaurants remain although the original decor has been long retired.
