    I certainly hope not! Too many non fans associate Elvis with over-eating rather than great music, so the further away Elvis is from this kind of c##p the better.

    Thanks for the info. We plan to go to Memphis in June and I will have to stop by the Gridiron and try it.
    America has contributed four things to the world that are really unique: Baseball, Coca-Cola, Mickey Mouse and Elvis Presley. And only one of them is human - - Jerry Hopkins - "Elvis" - A Biography.

    TCBEP is right, it goes back to when the "Elvis is alive" stories were floating around saying that he had been spotted at a Burger King in Kalamazoo, Michigan, thus the jokes.

    I loved the energizer battery commercial, you know where they show the gas station attendant with all kinds of Elvis artifacts in his little office, then as EP is pumping gas, the guy can't get his camera to work because his batteries died out, it was really well done.

    Yeah, that was cool. But didn't EPE ban it because the producers didn't get permission to use the Aloha footage?
