This is a shout out to an extremely nearsighted architect more than anything, I suppose technically the architects that designed this were from ancient Egypt but any way, this wasn’t built to be a Bass pro shop, it was originally going to be an arena but it turned out that pyramids are the least efficient shape for optimizing space, so they had to alter their plans, it wasn’t a good shape for this, it wasn’t a good shape for the Las Vegas hotel and it wasn’t a good tomb for the dead, they were only able to get one pharaoh in all that space.
The Luxor is far more stupid, say what you will but at least the Bass Pro Shop pyramid hasn’t been turned into a giant Dorito. Also it wasn’t built as a Bass Pro Shop, they bought it after it stopped being an arena which in all honestly is better. At the very least its still a bit of interesting architecture rather than a standard Walmart or whatever would’ve alternatively filled the lot.
Just a normal day in the US of A. Add it to the collection.

Oh yeah? Well, how’s the quality of their copper?
I’m not sure the tombs were built for efficiency.
“How big does it need to be?”
“Well, it’s an inefficient shape for optimizing space, so let’s just go with really fucking big”
Hah, I did not know about this place. I thought it was a photoshop of the Luxor in Vegas. Yup this is dumb.

You cant tell me that people could build these glass pyramids. Must be aliens.
