    I dont know why, but the fact that the decision to take over the pyramid was based off catching a giant catfish, just fills me with such a mix of feelings. Its just so....stupid. So funny. So genuine. So human.

    I love Bass Pro. Johnny Morris does a lot for conservation here in Missouri. My favorite anecdote about him is that once he had Martin Truex Jr. visiting the Bass Pro mother store - Truex is a prolific NASCAR driver primarily sponsored by Bass Pro - and had him doing donuts in the parking lot in his racing stock car. Morris, even getting up in years, was egging Truex on to get closer and closer to him doing the donuts until he very nearly clipped the man and took him out with the car. Morris then proceeded to make fun of Truex for refusing to keep going, and then got in his beat-up old Toyota truck and took off once the fun was over. He's a character.

    My terrifying experience with the Bass Pro Shop Pyramid (in Memphis) was due to my mother. I was 12 and I stole a rich guys tablet from a house my grandmother was cleaning. I hid the tablet underneath her couch whenever I had to leave for vacation, not thinking she was going to clean the house. I had gotten to the pyramid and was on the glass platform whenever my mom got a call from my grandmother saying that she found the tablet...I was terrified that my mom was about to throw me off the pyramid right then and there.
