Guess they were hosting an eSports tournament there recently

The Imperial Sugar refinery in Texas had a building that was literally just piles of sugar. Depending on how recently they had received a shipment, it was either filled to the gills or almost empty.

There was also an incident in the 1990s when one of the doors collapsed, spilling sugar into the parking lot.

I don't think storing it this way would fly in europe, and our walls are normally more robust than the average US wall.

The walls themselves are held in place by downwards pressure of the weight of the roof and the part of the wall above, and i'd say that fine grained salt behaves a lot like a liquid, therefore one must assume that the wall must be designed to withstand outward pressure of a liquid with the specific weight of salt. Whoever approved that to that filling height was pretty much lost to brainrot.

And now it’s a really cool concert venue

Is that thin wall all there was to hold up the giant mount of salt?

i mean i've been by literal salt mines so i don't know what to tell you

When it rains it pours for a salt storage, that's pretty funny

"When it rains, it pours."
