I legitimately do not remember that mall having a Burger King and I've lived near it since like '98.

This is honestly the most exciting thing in that dying mall for years.

Is there some guy still mopping the floors there? That's probably in the top 25% of cleanest Burger Kings in the country.

"All this, for me? 💃Ah, you didn't have to! 🥰"
My hometown had a cool old 50s-themed McDonalds, like with jukeboxes and an Elvis statue and poo poo. After I moved away, I was very bummed to hear that they sold the location to a new owner and immediately remodeled it to look like any old normal location.

Think this, but smaller and without the museum aspect of it.

Been in DE since the 80s myself, I swear to God I think that thing *might* be a McDonalds they had way back when? Or maybe was a McDonalds that got sold and turned into a Burger King? Hard to remember, but I swear I'm getting memories of a McDonalds I ate in way back when that looked like that. Or maybe I'm confusing it with another dying mall, barely go near Concord since I'm closer to Christiana Mall, which somehow seems to not be dying but outright doing well (maybe location? Being right off I-95 and near Route 1 is pretty drat good that way).

That Burger King was the only thing in Delaware and now that it's been found, Delaware once again doesn't exist.

I swear to God I've had Pennsylvania residents, when I say I'm from Delaware, think I mean Delaware County PA and not an actual state. At least we have a sense of humor about it; I remember the local DE paper had a contest for state slogan, and the winner was a map of the USA as seen from the West coast with a little guy way off waving labelled "Hey America, we're over here!". I still think "Delaware and Dracula; Only One Has a Night Life" or "Delaware: World's Largest Rhode Island" were better though. Also small state means we actually ran into Joe Biden when his wife and my dad were in for colon screening, so my dad got to achieve the dream of many Americans and constantly pass gas in Biden's direction in the recovery room :D.

Yeah, since '85 here, moved up north when I said. Concord's going the way of Tri-State like 10 years ago. I went for a walk around like two weeks ago and god drat, it's just deperessing. There's just nothing there unless you like Boscov's or that one Italian place that I have no idea is any good anymore. And yeah, Christiana's still pretty nice, even if I do miss the fountain. Probably because the next nearest decent mall is in Exton, if you don't feel like driving to King of Prussia to deal with that insanity. I swear, whoever built KoP was trying to summon an elder god.

Who poo poo in your fuckin' Cheerios? Why do you give a poo poo what other people do to have fun? I think it's pretty dorky, sure, but I've never told anybody to stop, because it just straight-up does not affect me in any way. Or are you just like "They're doing it where I CAN SEE, you don't understand, they're PUBLICLY ENJOYING A THING I DON'T LIKE"
