2009: a Pyramid of History by 5bbend in memphis pyramid
Now I will write about the Pyramid and how it got its name. When Memphis was discovered the explorer thought he saw the Nile, when he really saw the Mississippi River. Thus he named Memphis, after the Memphis in Egypt next to the Nile. Then we built a pyramid after the Egyptians. Next we put a basketball court so the Memphis Grizzlies could play in it, but Memphis built a new stadium called the FedEx Forum. Now we might put a roller coaster in there or a big Bass Pro Shop. I think we will do the Bass Pro Shop idea because the roller coaster will cost too much.
