The Memphis Pyramid | Bass Pro Shops
On April 29th, 2015 history was made, when Bass Pro Shops at the Pyramid officially opened for business.
Bass Pro Shops, Pyramid, Memphis, Tennessee
The Memphis Pyramid, initially known as the Great American Pyramid, formerly referred to as the Pyramid Arena and locally referred to as The Pyramid, was originally built as a 20,142-seat arena located in downtown Memphis at the banks of the Mississippi River. The facility was built in 1991 and was originally owned and operated jointly by the city of Memphis and Shelby County; Shelby County sold its share to Memphis in April 2009.[6] Its structure plays on the city's namesake in Egypt, known for its ancient pyramids. It is 321 feet (98m, about 32 stories) tall and has base sides of 591 ft; it is by some measures the tenth tallest pyramid in the world.
The Great American Pyramid was conceived originally by Mark C. Hartz, a Memphis artist in about 1954. The project originally included three pyramids located on the south bluffs of Memphis overlooking the Mississippi River. The larger of the three would have been 2/3rd scale of the Great Pyramid of Memphis, Egypt. Because the flanking structures would have been scaled at 2/3s the size of the main pyramid. The project languished for three decades until Mark's younger son, Memphian Jon Brent Hartz, resurrected the concept. Mark C. Hartz, who was well known for his architectural renderings, rendered a new bronze glass-glazed pyramid. After years of negotiations, the younger Hartz's concept was adopted by entrepreneur John Tigrett as a symbol for the city of Memphis. The groundbreaking ceremony was held on September 15, 1989 and the building was opened on November 9, 1991. The construction of the building was managed by Sidney Shlenker, part owner of the Denver Nuggets and several entertainment companies, who Tigrett had brought to Memphis to develop tourist attractions in the building. Originally, there were plans for a shortwave radio station broadcasting Memphis music, an observation deck with an inclinator along the side of the building, a Hard Rock Cafe, a music museum, and a theme park on Mud Island along with other things. However, the plans were scrapped because of a fallout between Tigrett and Shlenker and the latter's financial difficulties.
The Memphis Pyramid has not been regularly used as a sports or entertainment venue since 2004. In 2015, the Pyramid re-opened as a Bass Pro Shops megastore, which includes shopping, a hotel, restaurants, a bowling alley, and an archery range with an outdoor observation deck at its apex.
On the Pyramid's opening night,[clarification needed] the arena floor flooded because of inadequate drainage pumps, and the entire arena began to flood causing stage hands to sandbag the entire perimeter to preserve the electrical runs under the stage. The arena was also assumed to be NBA ready; however, when the Memphis Grizzlies came to town, it was discovered that the cost of upgrading to NBA standards made it more practical to build an arena tailored specifically for the NBA. As a result, the $250 million FedExForum, home of the Memphis Grizzlies, was built and opened in 2004.
The City of Memphis contract with the Memphis Grizzlies forbade the use of The Pyramid without the team's approval, and as a result, it went dark. A committee headed by Memphis businessman Scott Ledbetter studied possible uses of the arena in 2005, and considered such uses as converting the arena into a casino, an aquarium, a shopping mall, or an indoor theme park. In November 2006, Congressman-Elect Steve Cohen (D-Tennessee) suggested that he would attempt to open a Mid-American branch of the Smithsonian Institution in the building. However, these plans were never realized. In the end, the committee on the building's future recommended that it be used for destination retail which would create more jobs and new tax revenues.
In addition to the retail store itself, Bass Pro at the Pyramid is home to an archery range, shooting range, and laser arcade. The building also includes an Uncle Buck's Fishbowl and Grill with a bowling alley and a saltwater aquarium. The tallest freestanding elevator in America takes visitors to The Lookout at the Pyramid at the apex of the building, where they can take in the view on an indoor and outdoor observation deck or get a bite to eat at the Sky High Catfish Cabin; a restaurant, bar, and aquarium at the top of the building. At the base of the Pyramid is a 100-room hotel known as the Big Cypress Lodge. Bass Pro at the Pyramid contains 600,000 gallons of water features and the largest collection of waterfowl and hunting related equipment in the world.[12]
One million people visited the Bass Pro Pyramid between the grand opening in April 2015 and July 8, 2015. Due in part to this large success, Bass Pro is considering adding a zip-line and a second hotel to the Pyramid.

Room Walkthrough - Big Cypress Lodge at The Pyramid
This is a video tour of our room at the Big Cypress Lodge in Memphis, TN. The video speaks volumes so I will not elaborate here other than to say that I have not seen this kind of attention to detail outside of Las Vegas or a Disney Resort property. The whole place is themed as an outdoor adventure and the whole time you are in the pyramid it feels as if you have entered another world.
The pyramid boasts the world's tallest freestanding elevator, a couple restaurants, underwater themed bowling alley, a complete Bass Pro Shop complete with hunting museum, shooting range, archery range, and the best view in Memphis!

For all of you who don't know what Bass Pro Shops are, they are these massive stores that sell outdoor equipment. They have literally everything...camping, hunting, fishing...you name it, the probably have it! The first one we came across was in Macon, Georgia and it was there that we found out about the biggest store which resides in the Pyramid in Memphis, Tennessee. We were passing through Memphis on our road trip so wanted to check it out!
When we got there, we were so amazed at how big it was! It was like a Disneyland for outdoor lovers! This pyramid contains manmade ponds filled with all sorts of fish, restaurants, a lookout, and even a hotel! Pretty insane...definitely worth dropping by to check it out!

Filmed with youtube user Bluff City Elevators. It's hard to believe that this used to be a sporting arena for the Memphis Grizzly's before the FedEx forum was even built. Bass Pro did an AWESOME job at making this a wonderful shopping experience for not just hunters but for everyone in general. It will for sure bring out the hunter in everyone :)
