Bass Pro Shop Memphis....Must see attraction!

Never would have thought  Bass Pro Shop would be on my must see suggestion

List for anywhere, but this one is pretty amazing. They took the pyramid in Memphis which had gone bankrupt and was a hot mess and turned into something really cool!

Inside it has a hotel, restaurants a bowling alley, an archery range, outdoor glass observation decks and o r course the Grand-Daddy of all Bass Pro Shops!

It come complete with its own fishing  legend....

Story has it that Bass Pro Founder Johnny Morris was trying to decide whether to build in the pyramid. He was discussing it  while fishing the river by the pyramid with his buddy Bill Dance, Memphis native and legend in the fishing world. He said "If we catch a 30 pound or heavier catfish today I'll put a Bass Pro in the pyramid." Legend says they caught a 34 pound catfish and the project began!

Look closely at the top of the pyramid at the glass observation decks.
Will I or won't I???

A swamp complete with fish and boats. Look closely under the boat.

The tallest freestanding elevator in the USA.

A restaurant in the very top by the observation deck with a great menu!

Hmmmm, maybe some Mule'shine will help overcome the glass floor outside......

 Pimento Cheese topped burger sliders with burnt onion jam. Yum!!

Standing on the glass observation deck to take a picture of parking lot.  Could live without ever doing that again!

Walked all the way over the glass to the railing!

Outside the elevator.......can't have a swamp without gators right?
