It was a simpler time.

Back in the day, the mall was *the* hangout spot. If you wanted to meet up with your friends, but didn’t really know what to do, you could always count on the mall — a place that allowed you to eat, chat, and window shop, all without the real expectation that you actually buy anything.

Nowadays, a lot of these in-between spaces are gone. Everyone wants to know exactly what’s happening and when/where it will happen, making the chillout sessions of today a far cry from what they were before the days of smartphones. But with videos like this, we can reminisce about the good times we had munching on pretzels while kicking back in the food court.
