Is this the best use of the McDonald's logo ever?

It's near impossible to avoid those famous golden arches nowadays with McDonald's restaurants popping up everywhere and sponsoring everything (at least it feels that way). We've seen them act as everything from a logo to a beehive, but this latest stunt might be the best use for them yet.

Located in Media City, Internet City, Knowledge Park and Kite Beach, the swings encourage passers-by to take some downtime and spark their inner child. While it's not so much a billboard, it wouldn't look out of place on our roundup of the best examples of billboard advertising.
