Roosters' Place in History

Did you know...

Back in November 1971, the building that now houses Rooster T. Feathers was a bar called Andy Capp's Tavern, and it installed the world's very first commercially sold video game: Computer Space (against the far wall, near the back door).

And then a year later, in September 1972, Andy Capp's installed the very first Pong game (near the middle of the room), which was the first video game to be a big commercial success (Computer Space was too complex to play easily). Both games were created by Nolan Bushnell, the founder of Atari, and our building was where he beta-tested those games.

As part of Roosters' 30th Anniversary celebration in 2009, original Roosters' owner Tony Modica talked about the role of the Roosters' location in history. Among our little known facts: In the 1970s there was mud-wrestling going on at The Country Store, the predecessor to Roosters. The mud-pit was in the middle of the stage area. Here's a video clip from our Anniv Event. Enjoy!
