FISHBOWL AT THE PYRAMID

Where else will you find 13 lanes of aquatic-themed bowling if not inside Memphis' Bass Pro Shops at the Pyramid? Alligator eyes and other "creature features" decorate the bowling balls and shimmering, cool lights make you feel like you're floating under the river's surface as you play. Just the thing to do on a hot day, and ideal for families traveling with multiple generations.

SET YOUR SIGHTS

Practice your sharp shooting at a 25-yard live pistol and archery range. Equipment can be rented or guests may bring their own (please note that guests are not permitted to bring their own ammo and firearms must be checked in at store entry). After you’re through, stop by speciality shops like the Beretta Gallery that offer custom fittings and premium grade firearms.

BRING IN THE OUTDOORS

Some of Tennessee’s most majestic wildlife can be enjoyed from right inside the pyramid. The in-store swamp showcases alligators and 36 varieties of fish, all surrounded by cypress trees up to 100 feet tall.

TheDucks Unlimited Waterfowling Heritage Centertells the story of Ducks Unlimited and displays some of the highest quality artifacts in the world. Special traveling exhibits are a part of the gallery as well. The museum is open during store hours and group tours are available.

The Live Duck Aviary has four ponds with habitats for wood duck, black duck, mallards, pintails, and green winged teal. You can even sign up to be a caretaker for the day or several hours.

DINING AT THE PYRAMID

Experience three dining options that offer heartland cuisine for every palate in nature-inspired settings:

Wahlburgers Wild is the newest dining option and a unique one at that: It's the first location of the celebrity burger concept to land in the entire state of Tennessee, as well as the first to be tucked inside a Bass Pro Shops location. With parmesan truffle tots, burger picks from the famous brothers, their mom's favorite mac-and-cheese and a nice array of salads, you're in for a crowd-pleaser.

The Fishbowlisn't just for bowling. Pop in for breakfast, a co*cktail or mocktail from the island-themed bar (a good spot for keeping an eye on the bowling action) and to order from the full Wahlburgers menu.
