Why aren't they around anymore? And what is the mystical aspect to them

They were a public health hazard. In the 90's the few times I went to Chuck E Cheese the ball pits were always closed because some kids puked in them shit themselves in the ball pit or pissed themselves while in it. Depending on how sick the kid was it might have been all three or at least 2. Usually the vomit and Hershey squirts. A lot of places were getting rid of the because of this reason alone. Then you have other issues like the difficulty and expense of maintaining them. If you had a place with a ball pit and it was closed and there was a ball pit at place place up the street and it was open guess where the family was going? To the place with the disease pit like a bunch of retards. Screaming whining children with overworked parents can be very persuasive. You want to crawl around in a pit full of piss vomit and liquid shit? Knock your fucking socks off. I just got off a 12 hour shift and don't feel like arguing. Then there was probably lawsuits as well.

It's not because of any Boomer tier conspiritard nonsense about the world not wanting children to have fun. They were disgusting most of the time pretty much stayed shutdown and they were a liability.
 
Twitch Con had a foam pit a couple years back.



Half a dozen people got injured because they clearly didn't make it deep enough, and retards couldn't realize that was the case (see video).

Extra funny is that the woman in the video has made an entire career in pornography, but it's a foam pit that ended up breaking her ass :story:

I figure with all the piss and vomit the best way to not only bring back ballpits but also improve them is to make them all flushable. Imagine all those coloured balls swirling around, disappearing into a hole then re-filling with fresh new ones.
My brilliant idea: mesh layer on top of the floor, completely flat. Several feet of plastic balls on top. Also, key point here: it's a bar.

At the end of the night, after you've kicked all the patrons out, you raise the mesh--with the balls on top--several feet up in the air. Cleaning crew hits it with compressed air and you go underneath, collecting all the money and phones. Then they spray the balls with soap and water like at a coin-op car wash and let the balls dry overnight.

My second brilliant idea is to use this exact same system but with a locked dementia unit at a SNF. An elderly person with a walker can walk through a sea of balls at about the same speed they'd normally use, but ain't nobody breaking a hip when they go down. We still clean the balls the same way, but probably in the middle of the day; at night, everyone can sundown safely, wandering to their hearts' content with no bed alarms and no fall injuries.
