I drove past it on a road trip last year without ever having heard about it before. As soon as I could see it in the distance, I said "what the hell is THAT?"

Imagine my surprise to get closer and learn that it's a fucking Bass Pro Shop, lol. Apparently it's also a hotel - you can book rooms with lodge-themed balconies that overlook the store.
