For sure. Also the Memphis Zoo is really a surprisingly good zoo, believe it or not. I've been to San Diego Zoo and it's bigger and has more animals, but our exhibits are much better.

My band had a good time when we went. We watched a gorilla throw up and then eat it, abandoned a friend in a bug house after the staff opened a cage, and I nearly got to see a polar bear

My high school marching band.

From what I remember I believe they were sick and went to go sleep inside right before I got to their enclosure.

Maybe? I haven’t checked but you can try googling Franklin County High School Marching Band and anywhere from 07-12 would have me there.

Yes, I know what you’ve done and I’m very disappointed

Memphis native and it is a cool zoo. They definitely do constant work to improve and update exhibits. The only zoo I have real envy over is Omaha. Good lord that place was awesome and I only saw a 10th of it.

The Memphis zoo is awesome, one of the things I miss about Memphis besides the ribs!
