[King Of Gracelan...]

As Told By..... MYRNA SMITH


If Elvis was in Las Vegas when he wasn't performing, he would go down and gamble in the casino.
Nobody would bother him.
But if he was working Vegas, it was a different story.
The hotel would be flooded with Elvis fans.
I remember one day during one of his engagements, he came down out of his suite on the elevator, alone.
All of a sudden I see just hordes of people running toward the elevator.
I had no idea what was going on, but it turned out Elvis had walked out of the hotel, gotten into a cab, and gone down to the gun shop to buy some guns.
It was always like that if he tried to venture out while he was working.
When he wasn't working there, somehow he kind of blended in.
