Yeah.
It was a pyramid and the top level was the Pantheon.
You can't see me.
Where do you think Nick Wright got Mahomes Mountain from?
The fucking Hall of Fame pyramid.
You can tell him I said it.
Doesn't it kind of look like a pyramid now?
What do you mean?
The Hall of Fame?
Well, the concept of the pyramid, the concept was you go to the Hall of Fame and as you go up each level, and this original person who had this idea was my buddy Gus's dad, Wally Ramsey, one of my great English teachers of all time.
It was the concept as you go up and you go up to another floor and now the players are getting better.
And then by the time you get to the top floor, it's like the best of the best.
And that's the whole concept.
It's very good.
No, that was a great one.
And then the basement had all the people that couldn't make it, but all had their little stories.
Like the people, the comments, the drug guys, all that stuff.
Anyway, the Pro Football Hall of Fame guys, I always felt like they were the most annoying because it was like 50 people and they carried themselves everywhere.
like a fucking sorority, like a fraternity at Harvard where it's like when in social network where Mark Zuckerberg and his roommate are trying to get into that fraternity.
It's like, Oh, we made the second round and these douchebags and like put a robe on.
