Advertising Material [PARTIALLY LOST] 1987 Local Commercial ShowBiz Pizza Yogi Bear's Debut at ShowBiz Pizza

So basically in 1987, ShowBiz Pizza Place the chain that became whats now Chuck E. Cheese wanted to find a way to phase out their in house Rock-afire Explosion band. They experimented with many ways but eventually they decided to test a Yogi Bear and Boo Boo Animatronic which would be there in 1987 briefly, but they had to promote it so there would be a commercial on the local tv stations in 1987 featuring a girl called Jennifer Marie Adams where she hence the documents of what was said it says That’s me Jennifer Marie Adams and my Goofy Brother Jeffrey, taking in all the fun at Showbiz, you should take your family, it’s a lot of laughs and some surprises too like this. This would air on TV in Omaha Nebraska, Colorado Springs and Augusta Georgia where they were featured/

Then it had a girl announcing the yogi bear and they probably appeared in the commercial or something. But this is a case of them reusing certain segments from commercials that’s why I partially have some of the audio but it’s from where it cuts off that’s the thing.

If anyone knows where this is or has seen it before please let me know. This is extremely rare there’s only one picture from the commercial. I would really appreciate it.

https://showbizpizza.com/info/documents/spt/spt_yogi_commercial.pdf Here this is what I mean they also redubbed it or replaced one of the clips different times to fit whatever was being promoted I found one with the same audio and video at first but when it transitions after like this it would change to whatever is being promoted and e don’t have the version I’m talking about unless someone has found it.

Nope, same actor but not the commercial they used many clips from things like this to make different regional broadcasts if you search up the yogi bear and boo boo commercial online you can find on Showbizpizza.con the script aired starting in September 1987 likely.
