cheese_greaterWhat did you perceive as an innovation that Pizza Hut brought to pizza in the 90s/2000s?
Place in my hometown had a playground. Ancient ass location that apparently my dad basically lived at when he was in highschool.
But the slide was a rack of metal rolling pins you slid down. Not exactly an innovation to pizza but that thing was amazing at catching kid’s fingers. It did not last into the 2000s.
Console_ModderReading this just unlocked a core memory for me. I have no idea where it was, but I can remember going to a playground as a kid that had a slide that was also just rollers. Flinging myself down them to try and go as fast as possible, fingers getting caught between rollers, the zipper of an unzipped coat also getting caught between the rollers, trying to run on the bottom part of the slide where it was flat only to fall and get flung to the ground by the already spinning rollers…
Who the fuck thought it was a good idea to let children play on those?
Sick! Yeah they made some wild shit back then. Was bummed to see stuff like it go but on the other hand I did witness some epic wipeouts on questionable architecture
Would you have changed a thing tho, nostalgically speaking?
Honestly, I don’t know. The most fun memories I have as a kid were when I was messing around with or on things I shouldn’t have been near at all, but god damn were there a lot of injuries that could have been prevented if something like the roller slide were replaced with a regular slide. But then I probably would have found some other way to hurt myself
