Why would u wanna see his toilet?Originally Posted by hgs262626
I personally am glad that upstairs access isnt granted at Graceland. I mean yeah it would be great to see his room, where he spent most of all his time, but it would be beyond sad to see where his life ended. Its sad enough standing by his gravesite.
Yeah i read that once. True definition of a lie.

I couldn't agree with you more......

Yes,it is a strange obsession to want to see the toilet that Elvis Supposedly died on.But it's no stranger to want to see his bedroom or any other thing connected to Elvis.Pretty morbid stuff but curiousity killed the cat.They show everything in his room but the toilet.Most people won't be satisfied until they put it on display ,like his cars..just disrespectfull in my opinion.
Elvis learned at a very early age that you could stay very clean with only a small amount of water. He was not smelly. The cologne was just to make sure! He was not a dirty person!
I don't deny that I would like to see Elvis' bedroom and Lisa's but I have absolutely no desire to see the bathroom where he died much less the toilet.

Personnaly, I would like to see all Elvis' private rooms.
I'am sure in future, EPE wil open Upstairs ! Remember it !
3 bathroom's upstairs, bathroom in parent's bedroom (1/2 bath)...4 half baths total in house.
Yeah, I'm happy with just what I've seen.
Doubt I'll go back any time soon.
Since Elvis is no longer there, Ive lost my desire to visit.
"I have learned never to ridicule any man's opinion, however strange it may seem."
On december 14, 1977 Mr. Jerry Francisco held his second round deposition in a county government conference room. There he showed showed the polaroid pictures of the black porcelain commode and the discolouring of the red bathroom carpet.
He did, did he? I seem to recall he said he couldn't find them. Amazing the things you hear.

I have no desire to see where he died, although it would be nice to see his bedroom and Lisa's at the same time I don't want to because that was truly his private world and sanctuary, a place/area he did not share w/many. I'm glad it's not part of the tour and I hope it remains that way in my lifetime.
I don't think he was a dirty person either Missy and that is my huge huge beef w/you know who for saying such things.
When I was young...and Elvis lived....I often dreamed of going to Memphis...waiting by the gates...seeing where he spent his nights and days...Excited by the possiblity of possibly catching a glimpse of him.
After he died the desire left me. I don't know why for sure. It just wasn't special unless Elvis was living there. Perhaps it was the fear of something I once so happily dreamed of....now feeling so very sad instead.
I suppose we all handle our love of Elvis, and fandom differently.

SweetCaroline I can tell you from experience that to have seen Graceland as it looked when he was alive and then seeing it after he died and then again shortly after it's opening, very different feelings and experiences.When I was young...and Elvis lived....I often dreamed of going to Memphis...waiting by the gates...seeing where he spent his nights and days...Excited by the possiblity of possibly catching a glimpse of him.

I think it is good to see it as it is now, only because you get to pay your respects @ his grave and to view the hall of Gold is simply awe inspiring.
But you are spot on when you say we ea. handle our fandom in different ways...and I do understand where you are coming from in your feelings.
