- Who's the pro of Bass Pro Shops?
- Let's talk about that.
(upbeat music)
Good Mythical Morning.
- Today we're gonna be putt, putt,
putting our way around a Bass Pro Shops.
Now, how would you describe Bass Pro Shops
for anyone who has not experienced it?
- It is the place where all my inner good old-boy dreams
come true.
- Yeah, I would,
I would describe it as if Walmart acquired REI,
and gave it a Middle America makeover.
- Okay. All right. That's very specific.
I understand. - I think that's
what it is. It's the type of place that
I'd take my father-in-law and then never see him again
'cause they're so gigantic.
- Hold on, is that your plan? (laughing)
- Where's Bobby?
Well, we can just leave.
He's in a. - You're not.
- He's in a better
place now. - You're not thinking
about that are you? Okay.
All right. - He's in a better place.
- Let's dive in and do some shopping and some putting.
It's time for Pick N Putt, Bass Pro Shops Edition.
- Welcome to the putting zone.
- All right, you know the drill.
We're gonna be asked a question about Bass Pro Shops.
- Yeah. - And you have to take
turns picking and putting our balls
into the hole that represents the answer
because unlike boring one-hole mini golf,
we got three holes to choose from
this round. - That's right,
we're three times the fun.
Each stroke counts as a stroke.
Putting the wrong answer hole results in two stroke penalty.
- Right.
- I'm leaving words out.
- Yeah, who cares. - But
you kinda know what I'm saying.
- Right. - Whoever
has the lowest score at the end of the game
wins the right to wear the coveted winners jacket.
Rhett's won every time.
I have never put on this jacket.
- Hey, but it's, you know, it's anybody's game today.
It's anybody's game
and of course helping us out as always
and taking away my coveted jacket is Chase.
Caddie by day, boat captain by night.
- Oh.
- Bess.
- Bass, keep boat, fisherman.
(people laughing)
(air whooshing)
(upbeat music)
We have our first obstacle and it looks as if fishermen,
Captain Chase has a friend.
- Wow,
you know what. - He made friends.
- He looks a lot like
a Swedish chef. - His name is Anton.
- You're fishing but he's gonna net the fish or our ball.
You go first.
- But first I gotta know what I'm putting at.
- I'd rather for you to just
go without knowing. - I did not was gonna go.
I'm gonna go blind.
- [Stevie] Okay. Here's your first question.
Bass Pro Shops is one of the leading national retailers
of outdoor gear, and on a lot of that gear, you'll find
their company motto
which they believe is more than just a saying,
it's a way of life.
What is Bass Pro Shops' official company motto?
A life outdoors is a life well lived.
When nature calls, we answer.
We all live downstream.
(laughing)
- I mean, nature calls,
that's a euphemism. - It's a euphemism
meaning to go poopy
or peepee. - Yeah, I just
I don't think they would do that
and we all live downstream.
Nobody wants to live downstream from the power plant.
- Okay. So you're going for, a life outdoors
is a life well lived. - Is a life well lived.
- But as you can see, Anton
is really aggressively trying to stop me from getting there.
Okay, Anton.
- Oh. What a good shot. - Oh.
- Now you are pretty close to nature calls.
Are you gonna let fate decide?
- I am not gonna let-- - We know how you and
fate have quite a
relationship? - I mean,
here's the thing though.
I literally rolled right over the hole.
- Fine. Go for it.
- I mean, I have to just complete the mission
to get into a life outdoors.
- Now, I'm gonna go ahead and tell you that.
I agree with your answer.
Yeah, there's no way it could be the other two.
- Yeah am I right? You don't wanna live downstream.
You wanna live upstream
so everything you throw in the water affects your neighbor?
- Yeah, that's the spirit you environmentalist.
(laughing)
All right. Life outdoors for the whole in one.
- Yeah, you gotta watch that net.
You gotta watch that net. You gotta.
Whoa!
Whoa! - Ooh no.
- Whoa! - Almost went down stream.
- Almost went down stream. Hey now listen.
That was almost fake though.
- Get off me. - That is
so simple, I mean it's so close that fate is telling you.
- Ooh my God.
- Last time I tried this. Ooh, that's a tough--
- Now, see 'cause I gotta go-- - It's tough.
It's so tough. - I gotta go
right by the edge of that.
- You got to really thread the needle here.
- [Participants] Ooh!
- How do you roll that way?
- Well because you hit beside the whole bro.
- All right. If we're correct.
- Nope. (murmuring)
- I'm tearing down the course.
- [Stevie] Okay.
According to their website,
Bass Pro Shops claims their motto is a philosophy
that they use to help guide their decisions.
- Yes.
- [Stevie] And that motto is, "We all live down stream."
- What does that even mean?
- [Stevie] I tried to Google it
to see if there was some kind of like meaning
other than the one you - Fate.
- [Stevie] Came up with and there's just not so.
- Fate. - [Stevie] I don't know.
- You should've followed fate.
- But you were so close. Your was really fate.
Mine was still up in the air.
- And I'm upstream.
(air whooshing)
(upbeat music)
Same holes, new obstacle.
- There's just a pyramid.
- We know why that's there 'cause when we went to Memphis,
we saw a big pyramid and it was a freaking Bass Pro Shops.
Right? Steven.
- [Stevie] That's Right. Standing at over 300 feet tall
and originally built as a sporting arena.
The largest Bass Pro Shops location
is inside of the Memphis pyramid and Tennessee.
Which of the following is not an attraction
you would find inside of this flagship store?
A rainforest with a simulated thunderstorm,
an immersive swamp with live alligators,
and an underwater themed bowling alley.
- Bowling is not a outdoorsy type thing.
- You're in the lead by one.
- That's the one thing that doesn't fit this equation.
- But a rain forest.
How many people shopping at Bass Pro Shops
do outdoors activities in a rain forest?
- But alligators are difficult to maintain.
Everybody's always like, "Yeah, alligators."
But then the next thing you know,
you gotta get an alligator guy
and then he's gotta have an assistant.
It's very expensive.
- I think it's easier to maintain
than those things that set bowling pins back up.
- Yeah. You can get your arm caught in one of those.
- I'm gonna go left towards bowling.
I don't know, I think it might be alligators.
- Good luck getting to that.
- I actually think bowling alley
is starting to make more sense.
I'm going away from bowling alley,
I'm trying to get around this thing.
- [Participants] Ooh!
- Now what are you gonna do?
'Cause you're closest to alligator.
- Since I don't feel strong about any particular guess,
I'm gonna let fate decide alligators.
I'm gonna do the legal move, putter links.
And I'm just going to pop it in there.
Okay, so I went with, there are not alligator.
- I disagree.
- Okay.
- I have a strong inclination that they have alligators.
I think that's easy,
so I'm going with rainforest as my official answer.
Shoot, I've gotta give this some Gusto.
Whoa!
- Whoa! - It went over
the left side.
I think it-- - It ended up
exactly where I ended up.
So,
all right. - Okay.
So I'm gonna make the legal move here.
Is that illegal?
- That is totally legal.
- And then I am going for a rain forest.
- Careful.
- Yes. - Okay.
All right. He's in.
- Rain forest.
- [Stevie] Okay.
The Bass Pro Shops at Memphis pyramids
is like Disneyland for the outdoorsy people
but the one attraction you won't find inside of
the 550,000 square foot pyramid is
a rain forest and the simulated thunderstorm.
- Yeah, yeah.
Okay, all right
- 'Cause why?
- Well, rainforests are fun.
(air whooshing)
(upbeat music)
You wanna see Josh and Emily recreate the last meal
in the Titanic?
- Yes.
- Well, go over to the mythical kitchen channel
and watch him do it.
It's that simple.
- Mythical Kitchen channel, I'll do that.
Thanks for the note.
- Yeah.
- Oh, look at this new obstacle.
We've got a bunch of dead fish and a bass guitarist.
- Got it, a bass player.
- Overall water hazard.
That's quite a bridge right there.
- Careful.
- [Stevie] Here's the question.
In June of 1955, Bass Pro Shops founder Johnny Morris
helped country singer Waylon Jennings
catch his first fish.
Wayland wrote a song about it called "Odee to John L".
Which of the following is a lyric from that song?
He was more than a man,
he was a fisherman.
Did I hook the fish or did fishing hook me?
Don't cry me a river, throw me a line.
- Well, you gotta go first. - Men, I love me some Waylon.
- I'm relying on your country music knowledge--
- I mean. - To copy your answer.
- I freaking have...
I have Waylon
on the back of my-- - I thought you were gonna
start googling lyrics.
- I'm not gonna Google.
I got Waylon on the back of my frigging phone.
- Well, you should get this right then, right?
- But...
- Is that what's gonna happen?
- I've never heard
of this song,
but I feel like C was the most poetic sounding lyric.
Well, shoot. I got to get there.
We'll talk about this when we get down there.
But right now I'm feeling like, Oh crap.
- Oh, the fish came alive.
- What are you doing?
- There's no freaking where to get through these things.
- Okay. I'm going for like a, ramping situation.
- Whoa.
Well, nestled in tightly. - This is a
- Neo is between two fish. - Now is this a,
can I pull this out?
- Neo lays one.
- I really don't know how I'm gonna get there.
If this is on a real Popo course, people would be angry.
(laughing)
I don't know, I'm just gonna.
(laughing)
Cut. I hit chase. Went off.
- Okay. I don't know what the official rule is
but I guess if you--
- I hit chase. - If you make it
all the way to chase and you can drop right there.
- I think it's more than a man, a fisherman.
- Okay.
(laughing loudly)
- Didn't throw me a line.
- I hope is throw me a line.
- Fate has determined that I have to go
and throw me a line now.
- Now just like you link,
there's no reason for me to worry about the holes yet.
I just gotta get across these.
- Yeah, how are you going to do this?
- I'm gonna try to do what you did,
but I'm gonna try to do it on the first one.
I'm gonna try to get to chase or the water hazard.
- Yeah.
- On the first one.
- Oh, dang.
All right - Okay.
So I went out at the fish,
so I can't go all the way up here. I gotta place here.
Okay. So now I'm just trying to somehow get across.
- Whoops.
- Okay, so now I'm in the water, so now I reset.
Okay.
I actually think that he was more than a man,
he was a fisherman. That sounds like a Waylon to me.
- Yeah.
- Don't cry me a river and throw me a line.
That's a pretty poetic.
It's definitely not did a fish hook me. Right?
- He could have said anything, man.
- So I just don't wanna go into the middle.
Okay, all right.
- All right, so now
it's anybody's game.
- Okay. So I'm in the hole in four, you're in three.
- [Stevie] Waylon Jennings presented this song in 2016
when Johnny was given an excellence in business award.
The correct lyric is,
"Did I hook the fish or did the fishing hook me
- You're both wrong. - Or did fishing hook me?"
- That's why you haven't heard the song
because that's a bad lyric.
(air whooshing)
(upbeat music)
There's a giant fish Lick.
- It's a golden carp.
- I've been told-- - It wants to eat our balls.
- You throw your ball in there
and it just comes out randomly.
There's three different ways that it could come out.
- Ooh it can come out as pee, poop, or eggs.
- Or egg, right.
- [Stevie] Okay. (laughing)
Here's your final question that determines everything.
Bass Pro Shops offers all sorts of products
that involve third-party dealers,
but what is the most expensive item actually sold
by Bass Pro Shops?
Is it a Marshall Whitefield Ridge
three piece furniture sets?
- Is it like made out of white tail deer?
Or it's just got a - [Stevie] I can't tell you
- white tale deer's name? - [Stevie] that photo.
and old town sportsman autopilot kayak.
- Oh, now that's sleek. - Autopilot?
It has a trolling motor.
- [Stevie] Or a Browning in swinging vault door.
- You know what?
I always get annoyed with my out swinging vault door.
- Yeah, right.
- So dang it! Why doesn't it swing in?
- Yeah it gets,
you hit the things on the outside of the vault.
- Well, I mean, we're really going with fate here,
but do you, i mean do you have a guess?
- I think it's the vault.
- I believe that is the
best guess. - You can justify
a big price tag for something that's
protecting something that's big enough to have to walk into.
Okay. Let me give it a nice, it'll feed the fishes.
Yes.
Oh.
Oh. - Oh.
I'm lined up for the vault.
Common vault.
Yes!
- All right. He's in in two.
- Yes. Yes.
- Now here's the thing.
I think you're right,
but I can't go for the same thing cause I'm down by two.
But the only chance I have of winning is getting through
the fish and going into a hole in one,
which I don't even think is possible based on how weak
that thing came out.
But that's, I mean first I gotta get into the fish.
- First you gotta get into the fish.
- Not necessarily an easy thing.
- Look like an easy thing.
Yours dropped on the other side
so fate is supporting your need to make another choice.
- Well, it's not a fricking kayak.
I think it's the vault but again,
for reasons already stated, I cannot pick the vault.
So I'm gonna go with furniture and hope for a tie.
But I still have to make this putt.
- This is McLaughlin for the loss.
- Okay.
- Nice.
You have accurately hit the inaccurate answer I believe.
- If it's the furniture and I tie,
then fate is not on your side today.
- I know.
- [Stevie] While the most expensive item
sold by a third party dealer is
an offshore boat for $624,000.
The most expensive items sold exclusively by Bass Pro Shops
is
the Marshall Whitefield Ridge three-piece furniture set
(laughing loudly)
for $4,799 and 99 cents.
- Fate. - [Stevie] That means
you guys tie.
- Fate.
- So Hold on, if we tie do I retain the jacket?
- [Stevie] Well,
Linkedin seemed to want the jacket in the first place so
I don't know. - You have to win
to take the jacket.
- But I gotta admit,
I kinda ended up wanting the jacket.
- Well, there's always next time.
- I'll get over it.
- Thanks for subscribing and clicking that bell.
- You know what time is.
- Hi. I'm Jesse.
- I'm Jordan.
- I'm Emily.
- And I'm John.
- And we're fishing and Emily, Minnesota.
- [Group] And it's time to spin the wheel of mythicality.
- Whoa, that was good timing.
- Yeah. (laughing)
That fish was sitting there
waiting through a few cakes probably (laughing)
- Did she hook the fish or did fish hook her?
- I don't know you gotta ask Waylon.
click the top link and watch us try to play a game about
crazy things that happened at Bass Pro Shop.
- And to find out whether wheel of mythicality
is going to land.
- Can I do something that's referenced to the movie,
but it's also a longingness for this food?
- Yeah, I think you can do that.
- Okay. It's in the top one, right?
- Yeah, yeah.
(laughing)
