This is how my mind works. Fear me.
Eventually all of the cool old Playland equipment disappeared from McDonald's. It was pretty tragic. (Years later, I actually found the old equipment—bouncing Fry Kids, slide, Big Mac, and all. It had been bought by (or donated to) a Catholic church's daycare center down the street. Their playground was way by in the woods, behind the church building. There was a pair of dilapidated sheds at the edge of the forest, and a vaguely unsettling feeling to everything over there—right on the edge of the quarry. It was actually a pretty creepy area. But it was cool to find the old playground. I would play on it while my sister had soccer practice at a nearby field.)

I would so date a fry kid.
The local McDonalds didn't have any mascot-related equipment. In fact, it was little more than a wooden bridge. But I loved them so. My mother, however, got extremely paranoid about playground equipment, and forbid me to play on them.
We're talking about the same sort of place, yeah?
