“Garcia’s Pizza in a Pan, also known as “”The Flying Tomato Brothers,”” was founded in 1971 in Champaign, Illinois. At its peak, the chain expanded to operate 18 locations across Illinois, Indiana, and Missouri. This location was likely carry-out only and was unlikely to have included any coin-operated games. The building still stands as of 2025 and now has a barbershop in this unit.
