My aunt, by marriage told me a good one. Her dad use to work at the old Louisiana hay ride. When Elvis would come into Shreveport for a show, he would get my aunt's dad to drive him to Mansfield and do some putang hunting. Don't know if he had a particular girl there or what. He could have had any girl he wanted at the hay ride. Maybe he was protecting his image.

My grandparents knew his security guard at the gate really well and he'd show them the grounds and stuff. They said the same thing when they said the guy was like "that's the entrance we'd sneak the girls thru", crazy stuff.

My dad sold Elvis some clothes when he was working at National Shirt Shops that was on the corner across from the downtown Caddo courthouse and across from the library. This was when he was on the KWKH radio broadcast, Louisiana Hayride from the Municipal Auditorium.

Heard a story third hand from a teacher. Said when Elvis played Sheffield, AL the first time (1950’s) he went to a diner after the show. The owner said he ordered 5 burgers, 5 fries, and 5 shakes. The owner thought he was trying to show out eating all that food. Next time Elvis was in town, the diner owner’s curiosity got the best of him and so he went to his show. He said after watching him perform he understood why he needed all that food.

Another from an elderly lady who I knew from church. She was at one of those Sheffield shows. Said the bill had many artists from Sun’s label. The artists would play 3-5 songs and the next act would come on. It was in a packed auditorium and they only had like 15 watt amps at the time. She said she remembered when Johnny Cash was on stage the girls were screaming so loud for Elvis that no one could hear Johnny Cash so Elvis came out on the stage and asked the audience to quiet down for his friend.

I have a few more it’s just a lot to type.

My dad was in a Sears in Southaven. He walked down an aisle and there was Elvis. He said hello to my dad. My dad asked for an autograph but only had his checkbook on him. Elvis said he couldn’t sign the front of a check so signed the back.

My grandpa went to elementary school with Elvis in Tupelo. He said the stories of him being poor were true and he legitimately didn’t even wear shoes every day because of it.
