Photo of 'sad' McDonald's Play Place goes viral and sparks nostalgia.
Fast food restaurants are ditching kids playgrounds.
The photo racked up over 16 million views on X as more and more comments poured in.
There are a few reasons why the "play place" is becoming more of a rarity.
Drive-throughs continue to be far more popular than eating inside fast food restaurants.
The design and aesthetic of restaurants has become gray, modern, and sterile in comparison to the vibrant colors of decades past.
Some argue that no more slides, ball pits, and tubes at McDonald's isn't as much of a loss as it seems.
