Haha. That would be the Campbell one. The San Jose one looks like a pyramid.
Huh? That was the San Jose one!! It was shaped like a pyramid... the camera just didn't catch it. That pic was taken amidst people going up.. and they were looking at me oddly...

Trust me, this is the Campbell one off of Hamilton and 17. The pyramid one off of Brokaw and 880 really looks like a pyramid....straight out of Indiana Jones.
BTW this Fry's is the only one I'm aware of that has a moving sidewalk to the entrance above. And it's across the street from a Home Depot and a Shell gas station. Yup I visit Fry's that many times to notice.

I drove by the San Jose one this morning and if I consider the rest of the building to be part of the theme, then it looks more like a temple....so I guess the Campbell one is the pyramid.
