European Reacts to Bass Pro Shops PYRAMID
✔️ European Shocked by Bass Pro Shops PYRAMID in Tennessee - Reaction For the First Time

No Shaaaaance 👌💯 Always gotta watch your videos just because you say I make your day, so its the least i can do 😅
The "You make my day" bit is what hooked me in. Personality and humor, too, of course. Much love and blessings, Andre, to you and your family.
Fun Fact: the name Memphis is from the ancient Egyptian city that sits on the Nile. So it makes sense why they made a pyramid along America's largest river.
History is crazy lol
Wow that's fascinating ❤
Further up the river in Illinois where the Ohio empties into the Mississippi is Cairo, another Egyptian city name.
But Cairo Illinois isnt pronounced the same as Cairo Egypt. More like Ka-row, another wacky midwest thing like in Iowa we have Mad-drid, (Madrid) Na-vay-duh, ( Nevada) Trip-o-la, (Tripoli) Moscow might be the same and Rome is.
@@jimwilcox2964
...but pronunciation! Okay, but so what? It doesn't change anything. It's still another Egyptian name regardless of how locals might pronounce it. There are lots of names from all over the world, and often repeated from State to State. There is a Miami in both Oklahoma and Ohio. It's interesting, but doesn't mean much.
Fishing is huge in most of America. Both fresh and saltwater fishing is massively popular in the US.
Bass Pro Shops & DP. André, you US citizenship shall be expedited.
Start studying for the test.
He doesn’t live in the US though
I live in Memphis Tennessee where the pyramid Bass Pro Shop is. I remember there was a huge city party when they broke ground for the building. It was and is amazing. Before Bass Pro Shop bought the building there were some great music events in it. I love the building and Bass has done it well.
I live in Jackson, and I’ve been to the pyramid a few times myself. Truly incredible place. Sadly never been to the top though
The one in Memphis Tennessee is the only pyramid bass proshop!
André, I'm not a NASCAR fan, but the history of how NASCAR started -- the roots -- are FASCINATING!! Please find a video & comment.
Wasn’t it from moonshine distribution bc they drive real fast to evade police pursuit?
I'm from Tennessee. I live on the opposite side of the State, near Chattanooga, TN. My area is very mountainous. Memphis is flat. It usually takes us around 4 to 5 hours drive to get across the State. I love where I live. I'm surrounded by mountains on 3 sides & the TN river on the 4th side. Please come visit us, you won't be disappointed...
I'm in Nashville and love visiting Chattanooga. It's so beautiful.
@@selfcarewithstephanie3519 Thanks, love Nashville. One of my favorites....
Dr Pepper needs to be icy cold.
Colder the better!
And mixed with Southern Comfort!
With lemon slices! 😊❤
Warm
Dr. Pepper needs to be left alone. IMHO only those grapefruit drinks (like Fresca) are worse.
NASCAR is huge in America, it was invented here! It’s on television everywhere in the country every week, it has playoffs and championships.
I feel like it's more popular in the East.
I’ve literally never seen it.
I live in Alabama and I couldn’t care less aboutNASCAR. Its huge if you like it. If you don’t it is a pimple on a flea.
Nascar is very big over here, usually it's on Saturday and Sunday. You should actually do a video on all the crashes and some of the drivers fighting it's great. I live outside of Sacramento where Kyle Larson grew up he is one of the best in the sport.
not NASCAR but In Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, Mississippi, New Hampshire, and Vermont bass fishing is classified as a sanctioned high school sporting activity with tournaments, scholarships etc. There are 610 collegiate bass fishing teams.
Baby alligators are actually quite harmless. When they get to about two feet then they get moved to a new enclosure. This is quite normal. Gatorland has baby alligators people can pet but they get moved to a large enclosure once they get a certain size. The oldest known alligator on record is 60 years old, a massive 15 feet long, and weighs 2000 pounds. It took 20 men to move the alligator to a place specifically designed to house it. That alligator gets a deer a day with tons of chicken parts for snacks.
A deer a day plus chicken. What's insane. 😮
I thought since alligators are like dinosaurs they'd live twice that long. Google says they live to be about 50.
Interesting.
Gators are basically big reptilian dogs 😂
Memphis, TN and Memphis, Egypt both have pyramids. Makes sense
Memphis, TN is just down the river from Cairo, IL
@@corvus1374
Didn’t know this. 😮
And they are both along the longest river in their continent.
@@jessebest5961 but Missouri river is longer than the Mississippi 😂
@@-EchoesIntoEternity- It can get complicated but the Missouri river extends farther but it isn't longer because it drains into the Mississippi. Memphis is on the banks of the Mississippi not the Missouri nor the Ohio rivers.
The turkey looks quite real because it is. Taxidermy. lol
Yes Spanish Moss. Don't touch. It's full of chiggers that bite and make you itchy.
Someone from Georgia said that wasn’t true about the chigger
@@SarahBroad-kw7fj
You check first.
Chiggers will bite and itch, and I have encountered them in spanish moss in Florida and Texas. @SarahBroad-kw7fj
I touch Spanish moss all the time I never once experienced bugs😂😂😂
Chiggers go where ever there is shade & cool, in bushes & grass too. Spanish moss also bites, ask the trees it lives in. It's a parasite and will eventually kill the host it lives in, just like English ivy & mistletoe! 😢
Bass, the fish, rhymes with class, pass, mass.
Bass, the instrument, rhymes with base, face, pace, race.
Good afternoon from Tennessee USA love bass pro shops fishing is very popular here in the states
Bass pro shops are for anything and everything outdoors. Fishing, hunting, camping, boating, kayaking, hiking, rock climbing, gear and equipment for paint ball sport, guns and archery. Literally everything!
Yes! NASCAR is big. Especially in the South. They're headquartered in North Carolina, but race all over the US. Check out a video on closest NASCAR finishes. One this year was won by .001 seconds after 400 miles in Kansas. That's CRAZY!
NASCAR used to be fantastic back in the day. Now it is ruined with Toy Yoda and all kinds of other stupidity.
Thank you for your fun and uplifting videos. Yes, fishing is huge in America 🎣🇺🇲
Yes fishing is huge here. I couldn't stop laughing because my daughter was visiting Europe with her sorority last year and they went deep sea fishing in Lisbon. She was expecting Barcelona and Vatican City to be her favorite parts of the trip but fell in love with Valencia and Lisbon.
I’m from TN and lived in Memphis for about 10 years. Dangerous place, but lots of good things there also.
Fishing is very big in the US. There are so many different types of fishing from freshwater fish in like lakes, ponds, rivers, etc and fishing for specific fish. Then salt water fishing is very similar with fishing for specific fish. Deep sea fishing is another universe all of its own. I have done both fresh water and some ocean fishing in both the Atlantic and the Pacific. I am an old lady now and my fishing days are over but i have great memories.
If my remember is correct isn’t Memphis where Martin Luther king was assassinated outside his hotel room?
When my son was a toddler (we lived in Texas), I would take him to Bass Pro to look at the fish. It was fun when the summer temps were too hot to do much else. It gives a great science lesson and really helps language development.
In Arlington, Texas, there is a great nature center/museum called the River Legacy Nature Center. They have day camps for kids of all ages.
You're a great mom. ❤
My husband and I and his best friend were at the ground breaking for this pyramid. They dropped a giant lit up shovel from a helicopter and it exploded. This was intentional by the way then we went and watched the blues Brothers perform on Mud island. Dan Ackroyd and Jim Belushi performed because John had passed away. You couldn’t hardly walk. There was so many people there. it was awesome. That was about 35 years ago.
I remember the pics of the shovel in the paper. I was only 10 or 11 at the time.
@@LisaReisinger-p4w I was 20 or 21
I live in Shelby Forest just north of Memphis. This pyramid is 25min from my home. My friend actually helped build a lot of the interior of the swamp area.
This is the largest Bass Pro Shop in the U.S. which is 535,000 sq ft. I went to the first concert in the Pyramid which was Hank Williams Jr. and Tanya Tucker. I have also been in the Bass Pro Shop since it was converted. It is really unique.
17:40 'Anyone from Tennessee watching this?' Yes, I am currently in TN at this current moment.
Florida has the most bass pro shops with 12 across the state. There are 172 across the US and Canada.
We have 2 in the town I live in. Though 1 was a Cabella's before the combining. Also there are a couple more within a short drive, ( for people in the US 🤭, anyways)
Yes nascar is very popular here. You should actually do a video on all the crashes and fights between the drivers!
It's not Tennessee but I am watching from the other side of the river in Arkansas
I'm wondering how many people realize why they built the building in the shape of a pyramid and it's because Memphis has the same name as a city in Egypt. I'm not sure if it's still the same way but at the Zoo in Memphis it was very much Egyptian themed as well
I went to the Memphis Zoo several years ago & it was Egyptian themed. Very nice.
@@sherryjoiner396 oh cool. I liked it. I hope they keep it. Thanks for sharing
I live in Arkansas near Memphis and I have so many memories of seeing concerts in there. It’s awesome now with the bass pro in there. Great place to spend a day.
i live about an hour from a bass pro shop in east TN but we have been to the Pyramid several times there is nothing like it
these are all real animals that were taxidermized...
As a Memphis girl, this gave me so much joy to see! ❤
EAST TENNESSEE MY NECK OF THE WOODS ............GREAT REACTION BUBBA
Yeah, Bass Pro Shops has been one of the major sponsors in NASCAR for quite some time.
Think of NASCAR like F1 in Europe; popular in their own way.
Egypt has 118 pyramids. We have over 2,000 in the USA. Granted, theirs are just a little bit older 😂
2000? I only know of 2
Native Americans built hundreds of significant sized mounds, there is one in Memphis just downstream south of downtown
@@HBC423 2000 modern pyramids, although only 4 of them are actually large enough to technically qualify as a pyramid.
ours are filled with better treasures though
No, not even close.
I live in east Tennessee in the foothills of the Smokey mountains. It's a beautiful area. I have driven through Memphis a few times but never stopped.
@@colreb7149 roflmao! I'm sure you're correct!!
I just read that Americans spend about 50 billion per year on fishing gear, activities, trips, etc.
When we visited Memphis back in 2001 (my son was only 6 years old), we stayed at a KOA campground in a little camping cabin!!! It was a lot of fun and at that time very inexpensive.
As of January 2023 there were 177 Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s (same type of store)combined. In 2019 the revenue was $6.5 billion. Fishing and hunting in America is very profitable and popular. My husband contributes to that revenue. A few years ago he sold his Ranger Bass Boat(look it up) but he still fishes. He is in a bass fishing club. Many of our friends are big into hunting. All around the country hunting and fishing are big business.
I'm in TN. If you decide to visit the south spend a few days in Nashville, drive to Memphis and see the Pyramid and Graceland then make sure its football session and drive to Ole Miss for the best tailgate in the country and experience a great SEC game. Plan ahead and get a $39 Southwest flight into Houston TX and check off all your TX to dos. Food Nashville Hot Chicken and Pulled Pork, Memphis Ribs, Ole Miss every type of southern food you can imagine and all free. TX Brisket, drive to Louisiana for gumbo, etofee and beignets. Nice 2 week trip to the south.
I grew up in Oregon but live in East Tennessee now. It's a very long drive from one end of TN to the other. If you want to know what East Tennessee looks like, check out videos about the Great Smoky mountain national Park and Appalachia, or Gatlinburg. I still miss Oregon, but it is beautiful here too. 😊
fishing and hunting are MASSIVE activities in the U.S. they are SOOO popular, the local governments actually have to put limit restrictions on how many of each you can catch each season.
Also, Louisiana's Motto is "Sportsman's Paradise".... this doesn't mean team sports, but recreational sports which also include hunting and fishing and trapping, along with boating, skiing, diving, and others.... just about anything outdoors. They get massive amounts of hunters and fishers during those seasons that come from out of State along with all the ones that live in the State....
a lot of stuff in Memphis is influenced by ancient Egyptian culture. they have names of places and architecture, and tourist stuff.... thus why THIS Outdoor World (the actual name of the company. Bass Pro Shop is just their fishing and boating section. it used to be a separate company, but they bought them out and integrated them into the store) looks like a pyramid.
It is called fishing, but not necessarily catching.😅😅😅
Oh my goodness, if you actually went there, your wife would be looking for you constantly 😂😅
We are going to Georgia in July on vacation. On our way back home to Texas we are staying 2 nights at the Big Cypress Lodge in the Bass Pro Shop pyramid. It is a surprise for my husband and grandson. Enjoy your reactions.
Fishing!!! Well yes sir. I fish 4-5 days a week.
Throw a line in the water, come back to the house and wait for a bite. All the men in my family fish as well as most of my grand daughters.
I don't even hunt or fish, but I love natural history museums and this one reminds me a lot of one of those! I don't know if it is the same in Portugal, but many museums here in the U.S. will contain recreations of different natural habitats, and this is some museum-caliber recreation! I would be interested to see you react to NASCAR because I don't actually know very much about it. I'm not really a fan of any sports, but I have heard some *crazy* things about the technical feats involved in NASCAR so I would be happy to learn more about it.
Yes you should try fishing , two types, Ocean deep sea fishing, and river or creek fresh water fishing , you have to try it.
This bass pro shop and the headquarters shop in Springfield, Missouri are the best two bass pro shops.
Bass Pro Shops is notorious for having amazing live fish and other wildlife as well as very elaborate taxidermy pieces. I have been to "natural hiustory" museums that only have a small faction of what an average Bass Pro Shops store has on display.
I live in Springfield Missouri which has the largest bass pro shop in the world. Johnny Morris started right here in town selling tackle from his father's liquor stores. He open his first ship here in town. . It's still one of our top tourist attractions.
Wikipedia says the Memphis one is bigger……they might have stole your thunder, but I’m sure it is really great, even if it isn’t the biggest.
I once lived near the second largest in Clarksville, Indiana.
It was an interesting experience
I also live in Springfield, Mo and, I don’t care what Wikipedia says, as far as Bass Pro Shops go, because the one in Springfield is the first one ever, it proudly boasts the saying over the front doors going in that this store is “ The Granddaddy of ‘em all”. The store itself is amazing but when you take the day & walk through the “Wonders Of Wildlife Museum & Aquarium”, I don’t know how one can honestly walk out & think, “ Yeah, the pyramid is bigger”. Lol
Hi Andre, I’m from Memphis the Pyramid is huge original built for U of M basketball and cultural events went there many times. It was called the (Tomb of Doom) because the basketball team had such a winning record at home. The Mississippi River has a huge impact on Memphis from trucks going over the bridge with cargo and barges on the river with supplies. We are also the home to Fed Ex, Graceland (Elvis) rock n roll, blues (Beale Street) great bbq and other southern comfort food. Also home to St Jude Children’s Research Hospital their goal end childhood cancer. Many more interesting places. Love to have you visit.
Yeah I was wondering why the video didn't mention that it was built for the Tigers, not the Grizz. Grizz only played there a couple of years. And thanks for clearing up the meaning behind "tomb of doom". When the guy said it was because of... whatever he said lol, I was like noooo it's because the Tigers kicked some tail in that building lol
Yesterday while you were uploading this video we were at the Pyramid. We go every few weeks because it is pet friendly and great place to train my dog. We had lunch, the restaurant downstairs is now Wahlburgers, walked around, spent money we didn't need to, just had a pleasant morning. Kinda weird how life works sometimes, yesterday was the first time I noticed the bowling alley.
I live in Arkansas so I've been across that bridge many times and always see that pyramid but I've never been inside. My cousin and her husband stayed in that hotel before 😊
I've been to this bass pro shop. It is quite the place! This guy showed everything that was there besides the hotel. I never got to see the hotel either, though it seems incredible. From what I remember during the elevator ride, there's a little speech about how they decided to put the Bass Pro Shop into the pyramid. They were fishing and made a bet on the size of the following fish they would catch, and if it were that size or larger, they would put a Bass Pro Shop in the pyramid. They have ducks that live in the pyramid, and there are boats attached to docks floating on one of the ponds.
Not far from here is the Peabody Hotel. They have ducks that they keep in a penthouse on the roof, and they come down the elevator in the morning to a fountain in the lobby and stay there all day, then go back up to their penthouse later in the day. There is a whole ceremony for when they come out of the elevator! That view from the top is one of the best views in Memphis. There were window washers when I was up there cleaning the outside of that pyramid. 17:17 That is the I-40 bridge. 20:35 On the far left of that peninsula with the apartments is a park with a scale topographical model of the entire length of the Mississippi that can be filled with water so it flows like the real one. I can't remember the scale, but I think the model is a quarter or half a mile long. P.S. Pause as much as you want.
We went to many concerts in there before they changed it. My husband went there to see Eric Clapton
Hello Andre, fishing is so BIG in America that we have competitive fishing tournaments that can win you money. We actually have pro fishermen who are sponsored by fishing companies.
Fishing is great fun. I think more people are into finishing than hunting. But people that are into hunting are usually really into hunting. People that like fishing can be anywhere from people that do it casually to people that do it for competitions or for their job.
I used to love fishing I would go all the time with my dad but I haven't since he passed away because I think it would be just too sad.
Memphis should be on your list to visit when you come to America. We are the home of the blues and the birthplace of Rock and Roll and we have the best BBQ (slow smoked pork with dry rub). Not to mention the pyramid. Music and food is our soul.
I live in Memphis
I’m from Oklahoma and live in Oklahoma now, but I lived in Memphis from 1989 to 1995 as a kid. I watched the opening ceremony of The Pyramid live on TV. It was a big thing back then. A large crowd and a big celebration. They opened it as an arena. I never had the chance to visit it, though.
People in America LOVE NASCAR racing! Not just in the south! NASCAR is HUGELY POPULAR
I lived in Tennessee when I was a kid I absolutely loved it ❤
Representing East Tennessee, Andre...the better side of Tennessee. More scenery, mountains, waterfalls and we have Dollywood and Gatlinburg!
Chattanooga is the best part of East Tennessee
Yep, love to fish. & been to many a bass pro store.
I knew you would love this one Andre'.
This thing is over THIRTY STORIES TALL.
Tennessee, where you go to Memphis for the pyramid, Paris for the Eiffel Tower, then on to Nashville for the Parthenon. We've got it all! I'm from Nashville, but I've got an aunt in Memphis. :)
Also a Nashvillian. I've always loved the Parthenon and even though I've moved to the suburbs and work from home now I still go at just one a month. My oldest son had his prom there.
Dr Pepper, so much better over ice!
The perimid is only in Memphis. ❤
I lived in East Tennessee for 24 years, on the other side of the state from Memphis. I lived in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains. There aren’t any mountains in west Tennessee. I have driven past this pyramid several times as it’s right by the interstate.
That's what I'm talking about. I lived about 45 minutes from Baled River Falls for 7yrs. My soul misses going to the mountains there every weekend. But my kids are north. Maybe one day. ❤
You want to watch NASCAR CRASHES..... F1just denied American company from joining it. Andretti. Former F1 champ. Denied.
It originally was a basketball coliseum for the Memphis University basketball team. Memphis University built their own basketball arena. That's how crazy Americans are about their college sports. Bass Pro shops bought the coliseum .
They built something that big for a college team? Wow.
@@calendarpageCollege sports are HUGE in the US. 8 out of the 10 biggest stadium seating capacities in the entire world are USA college football stadiums and they are regularly filled to the brim as well. College sports are much older than pro sports in the US and there are much more stadiums in every state and are much easier to get to so they are actually much more popular than professional sports as well.
Bass Pro does not own the Coliseum. Just the Pyramid.
Memphis Egypt....
Don't tell fish stories where they know you and NEVER tell fish stories where they know THE FISH!
Memphis, Tennessee, is famous for being the home of Elvis Presley and his home Graceland. Graceland is now a museum where thousands visit Elvis' home and view his numerous musical awards. Memphis as you see also has its own pyramid. The Memphis Pyramid is two-thirds of the size of the Great Pyramid in Egypt and has been empty at various times.
Oh BTW, the state of Tennessee also has a full-size replica of the Parthenon complete with a towering statue of the goddess Athena inside.
Memphis is the home of the blues
I grew up in Memphis but haven't been back for many years. I live in East Tennessee now. The Bass shop is impressive, but I bet you can still buy $1 8-track tapes at Schwabbs Drug Store on Beale Street.
300,000 Spectators in Indianapolis to watch the Indy500 tomorrow.
Ill post the Flyover Practice Flights from today.
I believe NASCAR has the largest capacity stadiums in the world. Somebody correct me.
Hey Andre. Love your videos. In 2022, the fishing industry in the USA was $9.6 billion. Yeah, it’s pretty popular. Love fly fishing myself.
Check out spending 24 hours at bass pro pyramid’ by Brennan Taylor
Posted a video of the Thunderbird Flyover practice for Indy500
Spent 5 years in Cleveland,Tn...American South East is God's Country
If you want to see some crazy American fishing TH-cam hand fishing (noodling) catfish fishing.
Franklin Tennessee just outside of Nashville watching you.
If you want more Lore for the Bass Pro Shop Pyramid, Miniminuteman recently did a video on the SECRET HISTORY of the pyramid.
The four major sports in the U.S. are as follows:
1. Football
2. Basketball
3. Baseball
4. Hockey
By all means, check our some NASCAR videos.
Yeah ... the sport is traditionally a "Southern thing".
But much more exciting and dangerous than Formula One.
You need to watch the video of the guys who checked into the hotel and spent 24 hours in the Pyramid.
" We Spent 24 Hours at The World's BIGGEST BASS PRO PYRAMID "
I’m about 4 hours from Memphis in Arkansas. It’s very pretty here. Lots of rolling hills.
Hi, André!
Hi my friend 😊
Love your videos. I am from Tennessee although on the opposite side of the State, in Knoxville, the Gateway to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. We are about 390 miles East of Memphis.
Memphis is named after Memphis, Egypt because it’s on the Mississippi River like Egypt is on the Nile.
I live in Memphis, about 10 mins from the Bass Pro Pyramid, which is the largest and the more unique one in the country.
Im afraid, my friend, that drinking Dr. Pepper, good as it is, will hamper your weight loss endeavors. 😊
