These pictures are so surreal like out of "dawn of the dead" or something. I used to love malls... hang out all weekend with my brothers and friends. Watched Star Wars and Raiders of Lost ArK like 4 times on one ticket. We used to skip between movies before credits rolled and ticket guys would be watching. Hey I was 6-7 aint going to jail just kicked out. Great place to meet girls from other schools....got my first girlfriend at 13 from a mall....just awesome pieces of Americana disappearing.
Since this is P&N.. yep disappearing middle class, wal mart, online shopping you name it it's a cause for their demise. Sad though. Much more social experience than current shopping is. At least when you're young. I dont go to malls today unless dragged there.
