Some users were wondering how it was possible to find such a well-maintained establishment after so many years. According to some comments, the “BK Vintage” was already known by other people who worked in the same mall, since it was used as a warehouse. Because of this, the environment is relatively clean, but it is still possible to find some signs of deterioration, such as mold.
According to some videos, as soon as you enter the old restaurant, you are immediately transported to the 70s. Right away, there are some pastel-colored tables and shelves, as well as vintage art scattered on the walls and white chairs. Like everything that goes viral, they found a way to play with the situation: “The American version of finding remnants and artifacts from the Roman Empire”, said one of them. Still, many questions were raised about how this restaurant was “stuck in time”.
A good explanation is that Concord Mall, as the second largest mall in the state, has undergone many renovations over the years. Therefore, netizens believe that in one of these changes, this Burger King may have been temporarily closed, but ended up being forgotten. Because of this, even conspiracies arise about which other stores may be hidden between the walls of the mall.
In Brazil, Internet users joked about the possibility of finding vintage restaurants by Brazilian brands across the country, such as Bob's, and even Burger King itself.
