To those of you that were fortunate enough to visit Graceland Too before an Ole Miss game, it is a sad day.

Graceland Too

Dude was 70 years old. The day before he was found dead, he shot and killed an intruder to his home. The shooting was ruled "self defense". Something isn't adding up.

Been a few times in college. Once he opened the door with a shotgun aimed at us, but quickly apologized and showed us his gun collection.

A few of my best friends in college were from Holly Springs and say he used to go outside and shoot guns in the air when teenagers would "ring and run" his doorbell. Can't believe he hasn't killed anyone sooner than this. Quite a crazy motherfricker. Another time my buddy dropped an antique Elvis clock (that looked like a record) he wasn't supposed to be touching and the guy gave us 30 seconds to leave until he grabbed a gun.

Also, this is very sketchy. I think he killed himself with pills or poison because of guilt or because he thought charges would eventually be brought against him for that shooting.

I hate to hear it. You know if you visited three times you got to take a pic wearing Elvis's jacket.

Was he found dead taking a shite like Elvis?


That would be too cool.

fricking loved that place. I'm a lifetime member.

Last two times I went by (months ago), there was no answer at the door.

Paul was in horrible health. I think it was probably just the stress of the situation that pushed his body over the edge.

I was a lifetime member at Graceland Too. I guess I'll have to pay admission next time I go.

We've been emailing like the dickens about this, discussing the various trips we've made. Good times.
