This story absolutely tickles me to.pieces. it goes to show, thst if something did not go Elvis's way, he simply did it the easy way. But, I am imagining if a fan was out walking in early am and saw elvis walking, dressed to the nines with a Tommy gun, they would be shocked 😲

[@gailcalderone5229]

Yeah... True but Elvis would have sat down with the fan and talked for awhile , because that's what he would do .

[@mandiflanary8675]

I've loved Elvis since I was 8 years old, I'm gonna be 32 in September, some would say I'm a very dear fan of his, lol 😆, but if I was walking through Memphis and saw him with a tommy gun, I'd probably run. Lol 😆

[@andrewmanzi7512]

I heard a similar story once, after a show the guys all piled into the cars and took off, not realising that Elvis had stopped for a call of nature. Each car assumed he was in the other vehicle. Apparently, he was found hiding amongst the bins at the hotel where there were several thousand fans milling around! I would imagine they broke several speed records returning to the hotel!!!!

The car Elvis was in the body guards car So no one ever really lost Elvis because it was their job to be around him at all time .

[@vicki6070]

Great video David! I never heard the Tommy Gun story! I really liked it too. I'm familiar with the Joyce B. story, but it appears that it has almost intentionally been kept quiet. According to another video, that's what she thinks anyway. You hear about EP on the plane with Schilling and how EP gave a soldier $500 and, of course, EP's meeting with Nixon at the White House and that EP was accompanied by Sonny W. and Jerry S. The surrounding story with Joyce B. seems to be obscure. Joyce B. said that the reason EP went to get Jerry S. was because EP could not locate her himself and needed help. EP no longer had her personal number so he checked into the DC hotel and was calling the State Department, where she worked, trying to locate her. As Joyce B. said, Jerry S. could confirm it but won't and she thinks it has to do with Prissy. In my view, maybe they don't want to "muddle" the Nixon meeting with another girlfriend story. Of course, EP was still married to Prissy at the time. Thoughts?? Joyce B. also tells another great story when she, EP, her sister and Sonny W. went to get something to eat and found a Donut Shop that was open. There were several black teenagers in the parking lot and EP got out to talk and showed them one of his belts and then pulled a hand gun out and told them "...and this is how I keep it." (paraphrased) So, these are great stories and she provides great detail. I see no reason not to believe her. Question please. How close of a friend was Jerry S. really to EP? I've been wondering lately since the death of LMP. It appears that Jerry S'. constant story is that he's been there since the beginning. He was there at her death. He married Lisa, Riley and Navarone. I didn't think he was really in the entourage that long and at one point Jerry S. even quit and never worked for EP again. I guess they remained friends, but how good of friends were they really? If you recall, EP thought early on that Jerry S. and Prissy had something going on. Jerry S. has been cuddled up next to Prissy all these years and I do see his connecction with LMP, but question the depth of his relationship with EP. At one time, Joe E. (Parker's informant) was considered to be the one most knowledgeable about EP, but now he's gone onto glory. I know Sonny W. said that Jerry S. has embellished some of his claims associated with EP. Thoughts???

David, I’ve lived in #Memphis for 70 yrs and it was safe in the 70’s here but if #Elvis walked home to #Graceland from The Memphian it would have taken him all night! 😂 it’s gotta be 10-15 miles from that movie theater and no easy route. I had 4 aunts who lived in Whitehaven all around #Elvis. We saw him all the time and he knew my aunts well. In fact, 2 of my aunts were probably the original “gate girls”. I’ve never known anything but #TheKingOfRockAndRoll......just sayin

Interesting story. What if the usher hadn’t been there?! Regarding the part about him going to Washington and California, I never thought of what the difference is between a hotel and a motel. Now I’m going to have to google it 😂

[@gailcalderone5229]

Elvis went to Washington ( no girl helped) Elvis gave a note to the men standing outside The White House...G He gave them another not saying what hotel he would be staying at....if they needed him or any explanation...So it took two days for the secret service to have him checked out... That's all it was to investigate...So they got together n a made a lovely day out of it....But by no standers could or would this happen again Not for anyone!!!!

[@gailcalderone5229]

These days if u were trying to get in the White House... You'd probably would be shot.. Then again there was only ONE ELVIS...Much Pull... You would never see the likes of this again...Cause only Elvis could be so sincere n up to nothing but good...

[@deborahstevens9763]

It didn't take two days. He went first to DC, checked into a hotel; made no contact with anyone, flew to California, contacted Jerry, flew with him to DC again. He wrote the letter to Nixon on the plane, went to the White House; dropped off the note and later that morning the White House contacted Jerry, who had sent for Sonny by this time. Sonny arrived just as Elvis was leaving for his appointment with Nixon. He was recognized when he dropped the note off, and the White House people facilitated his seeing Nixon.@@gailcalderone5229

I always wondered abt this story of him going to D.C. Like first off, how did he just leave graceland? Did he call a cab? Like how did he get to the airport esp with his star status? Wouldnt that cause a commotion? How did he just call jerry schilling? Did he remember phone numbers by heart or did he have it writtem down? Did he take along money to pay for the hotel? I knw he had 500 or 5000 bucks (i forget the exact amount) which he ended up giving to a soldier/vet for Christmas. I have so many questions lol

[@ElvisistheMan_]

All the answers are out there. Off the top of my head. I don’t remember all the details, but he got on a plane by himself. There wasn’t much of a commotion surprisingly. He got to Washington and call Jerry , I forgot how he remembered his number. I was had Jerry get about $500 but had Jerry give it away to a veteran on the flight from California to Washington

[@gailcalderone5229]

Elvis had his driver take him to the airport but when he got on the plane they wouldn't let him on with his guns..aSo Elvis called Jerry to meet him at the airport..When Jerry got there, he explained they wouldn't let Elvis on the plane with the gun.. Anyway they took the plane to Washington because Elvis had a gift for PR.Nixon...its a long Story but the guys were welcomed into the white house to have a meeting with the President...Elvis gave Nixon a couple of guns n in return Nixon gave all the guys gifts for themselves as well as their wives..The guys stayed n had lunch with Nixon..That how Elvis also got his narco badge from Nixon.....

[@gailcalderone5229]

He walked out of Graceland because his father n a few of his friends were on him about spending to much money.. Elvis said ," I'll do what I want". He left the house with his drive n when he got to the airport ,he called Jerry to meet him there n he did...Then they took another plane to Washington....and it went on n on n on...Until they all got to visit PR. Nixon n had lunch together...
