Isn't it the MET? Or the Smithsonian?
I went to the MET and it was indeed massive. Didn't see everything and we were there for a while. It did look as big as the Louvre at the very least.

This Doughnight calendar is super helpful in keeping the streak going; I'm still getting double (2
each time). Let's see how long it lasts, though...

I thought it'd be a simple search to look up the biggest museums in America. I was mistaken. Praise be Wikipedia people when the rest of the internet fails me. According to them, Louvre is the biggest in the world. The first one from the USA they list is in Chicago, a Museum of Science and Industry. No mention of a Smithsonian, which shocks me, because I thought it was the Smithsonian that had more exhibits than you had time in your life to see. Another website dedicated to art museums put our Birmingham Museum of Art in the top 20 here, so that made me happy because I enjoyed the trip there.
Random memory tickled. Back when my grandparents lived in Kansas, they took us to an airplane museum. My wee toddler self loved the world war planes the most with their big painted teeth.
I'm still on one troth token per day and by this point I have just accepted my fate. XD

It's a really old, fuzzy memory, but I know my grandparents lived in Topeka (because my grandfather got relocated when our local Goodyear tire factory went into turmoil with layoffs), so I want to say the Combat Air Museum in Topeka?
https://www.combatairmuseum.org (Some photos don't show teeth though, hrm...) Some of the exhibits at the time let you walk inside a few of the planes.
