some people claim he died on this day 1977 . where were you when heard it?

Stewart, B.C…… at the town dump.

Not alive yet.

He was just here, but he left the building.

...riding in a gold ford pinto, headed south on Broadway in Littleton CO to help a man from Scotland paint the inside of a womans house. Poor thing was bawlin' her eyes out having heard of Elvis' passing.

Ironically Elvis was doing almost the same thing when he heard.

I don't remember exactly where I was, but I remember hearing he was on the toilet.

be aware of valsalva maneuver , it could have saved his life.

Having breakfast as a 6 year old boy in the Olde Pancake House. Dad was reading the paper and the headline was Elvis Dead.

Riding along on Highway 51 between Memphis and Millington with a buddy who had a car, and oddly enough only a couple of miles from Graceland. We got wasted.

Was working in a [bleep] little factory, hot in there was sposed to work 2 hrs OT. forman came running through the plant screaming the king is dead the king is dead shift ends in 10 minutes everybody go home didn't know I thought King England or something went home thought about it went looking for a new job the next day never went back.

I saw him the other day in the ice cream box at my grocery store.

I was in the Airforce, stationed in the U.K. Had spent the two prior days on ground alert, flew an eight hour Silk Purse mission that day. Get home, walk in the door to find my wife all teary-eyed. I'm thinking either she had a rough time while I was gone with our 18 month old daughter or she got a call from home delivering bad news. I ask her what's wrong, she says Elvis died. I'm roling on the floor laughing my a$$ of asking her if she's frekin serious.

I still remind her and everyone else about that day... 🤣

I just saw him the other day when I was in Vegas?????

I was MUCH more interested in Elvira than Elvis the Pelvis.

Outside burning a joint with my girlfriends older brother,leaning ,against his le mans bullshitting.

I was 16 when he died, and actually wasn't a fan of his, so it didn't really hit me much. Just a news item.

I appreciated his music much more after his death than before.

My cousin (same age as me) had been a fan of his for years when he died, so it hit him a bit hard.

Persiandog: Unfortunately NO.... he's not alive.

I'm sure a few qtards think he's hanging out with jfk Jr at trump's place....

What were you drinking?

This was his last live performance, Rapid City, SD June 21, 1977.

Is Elvis alive??? Ask Q… but do so in the approved code…

The old lady next door ran out of her house yelling at me as I working in the garden. I thought her old man had keeled over dead, but it was Elvis. Scared me half to death.

At work at our local gun shop. Owner was a monster Elvis fan. His wife called me there and asked me to break the news to him before he saw it on the news.

He was crushed and cried like a baby.

Theme song to Ghost.

I thought he went back to Tupelo.

I stayed in an Elvis Themed Hotel...

The restaurant is for people who Love Meat Tender.

This is my mom and Elvis in Germany.



My dad was a company commander on the same post where Elvis was stationed. My dad was friends with Elvis's CO. Dad said that while Elvis was there, Elvis was a very well regarded soldier. He did his job. He didn't live off his fame. He lived off his soldier's pay. He borrowed money to get by like other soldiers. And when he left to go into a special services unit, he went around and paid everyone to whom he owed money. Only later did he get some privileges and live off post in a rented house.

My mom asked Elvis if he would come to her officers wives club. Mom said he said, "Well ma'am, I can't do that. If I did that for your club I would have to do it for all the others." I can imagine him saying that in his Elvis voice.

BTW, when I was younger, my mom sent her original photo out for copies. The copies came back but someone stole the original.

Mom was a huge fan so heard it around the house.
His music and his contribution to music hasn’t aged well. No real redeeming value to him or his music that I can see.

😁😅😅🤣🤣🤣🙄

I used to sing my rendition of the chorus to Kentucky Rain to my wife when I was in the shower. She'd yell at me to shut the puck up, I'm scaring the kids... 😁

Wow! That sucks.

I got a ticket from the sob a few years ago in Frost Texas for “exhibition of acceleration “ but the judge threw it out because he miss spelled both words. After that things went down hill for the old boy. A jealous husband caught him in bed with his wife and dam near killed him. Put him in the hospital. Heard he retired.

I was 17 and working at a full service gas station when I heard it.

Ron

I was 17 working in a grocery store after school. When I got to work that day, all the old lady cashiers were crying. Asked them what happened, they said “the King was dead”

My Mom was a huge Elvis fan. The year before, in 1976, I took Mom to see Elvis perform at our local coliseum for her 37th Birthday. Hell of show! Of course, he was fat Elvis at that point. Just one year before he died. Mom had also seen him perform at that same City Coliseum when she was in High School in 1957.
She said he drove his pink Cadillac to that first Concert she saw him at in 57.

I'll have to take their word for it... I haven't seen him since.

Nope. But mark lanegan and chris cornell are alive. Theyre going to release some killer sheeit

Girlfriends house, her Father was teaching me how to work on motorcycles. A 72 sportster iirc

Saw him live in West Palm Beach 2/13/77 paid for two scalped tickets at $50 each

My wife was a critical care nurse there fresh out of nursing school. She was off duty when he came in but had he survived he would have been in her unit. Knew some of the staff that was in the ER and worked on him. He dedt. But it took a while and some unnecessary treatment before it was official. I have seen copies of his ECG. Flat line. He dedt.

Supposedly he was in and out of the hospital on rehab and recovery so much he had his preferred wing of a floor. Also supposedly he was very generous to those he took a liking to. At the end much of the single use materials used on him walked. IV lines, resuscitation bag, 4x4’s, etc.

NO!

He just went home.

We watched Men in Black again a couple nights ago. Always funny. Tommy Lee Jones and Will Smith play off one another wonderfully.

When I heard the news I actually [bleep] myself afterwards. I was 6 months old so I was going to do it anyway but still.

Coming home from the dentist after having a dry socket packed.

Never was a huge fan, but thought, dammit, this is gonna be a big deal.

Big deal? when ya remember what you were doing, where you were, what you were driving... yeah, a pretty big deal.

I'll never forget it.

I was driving an overloaded poultry truck.

That’s an awesome photo. Your mom was a beautiful woman. Thanks for sharing!

Mackey

Both Elvis and John F. Kennedy survived many years beyond their supposed demise.

Jfk was a basketball american?

#boomer strong although I was alive before it happened born 07-77

I'm caught on the Can... I can't Let out.. Because i Love Ope's too much Baby...

Well Bless'a my Bowels whats'a Wrong with Me... I havn't had a Dump since'a Seventy Three.. I'm on Drugs... I'm all Stove Up... Uh Huh... Yeah Yeah...

I was working in a local grocery store, 17 and about to start my senior year in high school.

My dad had me run off a stray dog, shot behind him with pops 12ga and he just meandered off looking at me like "wtf?".
The dog was back the next morning. The news was going on about Elvis passing and Pop said "dam, I'm gonna take in that stray and name him Elvis"
Turned out to be one of the best mutts he ever had.
Elvis is gone. Left the building.

he was very much alive in the fall of '64 when I had lunch with him at Graceland.

I was 14 ,and heard it on radio at home ..my first thought .Hell he was an old man anyhow ....what did i know then ?

Double Cheeseburgers or Deep Fried Peanut Butter & Banana sandwich???

peanut butter, banana and bacon, if I recall

LOL ! I always heard that those and Double Cheeseburgers were his favorites. Bet they’d be good with lots of bacon on them.

I remember the exact place I was standing and can still feel the atmosphere when I got the call that my parents and brother were in a horrific car accident. I was 15, my buddy was 16 and had just dropped me off. He hadn't left yet and had to drive me to the hospital.

I remember the look on my Dad's face when he was told his IPF was terminal by the doctor.

I remember the exact words out of my Mother's mouth when they told her she had brain cancer.

Entertainers, Celebrities, Sports Players have never registered a blip on my radar.............

I can however point to the exact place my work pickup was on the road when I turned on the radio and heard about the first tower being hit.

At home in Rittersdorf, Germany.

I was 7. I was in my bedroom when it came on television. Broke my heart and still does. He had an incredible voice and incredible range. Stunning good looks and raw sexuality from '68-'73.
