"I spent literally seconds looking for the tomb," Pyramid remembers. "When I arrived at its outer gates three days later I realized it was right where the witches at Wiccanpedia said it was, for King King's remains lay in the fabled [[wikipedia:Martin Luther King Center|Valley of the King's]] in Georgia. I'd gone out on a limb - recklessly acting against my own beliefs - to surmise in public that this tomb existed, and lo and behold, there it was!"

"When I walked into the area of the tomb, guided by arrows and kind National Park Staff," Professor Pyramid tried explaining, "I found a massive stone surrounded by water and tourists. I immediately cleared the area, laid out surveying tape and tools, and only after all was protectively roped-off did I take time to show the clearly agitated National Park Police the proper permits from my government which allowed me to excavate the site. As they read through the documents, and everyone started calling people on walkie-talkies and increasingly ringing cell phones, I began the field work. First I made a paper-and-chalk rubbing of the tomb's frontal-hieroglyphs. Then, when all was properly prepared, measured, and photographed, I took hammer, chisel, and archeologist-strength [[wikipedia:Rototiller|'tiller]] in hand and approached my discovery. The marble was solid, a societal tribute piece likely designed by a nationally-recognized stonesmith. But it eventually gave way due to my persistent and well-honed drilling skills. I was told that upon opening King King's tomb and popping my head in that a lingering homeless man asked me either what the hell I was seeing or what the hell I was doing, and I was heard to say 'Wonderful things.'"

Pyramid entered the tomb first, followed by a kid from South Carolina eating an ice cream cone and then the curious homeless man currently looking for a new four-sided enclosure and obviously pretty excited by this one. When the light of day hit the sarcophagus - a solid coffin-like box later found to contain the mummified remains of Martin Luther King, Jr. - lots of research pictures were taken and posted on the Cairo Museum's website, Facebook account, and Twitter#Celebrity Archeologists.
