Seeing that Elvis picture reminded me of those days. I, like many young men,
was jealous of Elvis. All those girls drooling over him rather than me.
Elvis had a show at the fairly new Tarrant County Convention Center. I had a
few drinks and went down there to humiliate him in some way, and run his ass
out of town. Well when I got there, even though those drinks had made me
much bigger and tougher than before the drinks, I was unable to penetrate
the security. In addition to Elvis' people, the security consisted of a good
number of policemen and even several firemen. I couldn't get to Elvis but
got close enough to show and tell him who I was and inform him he had better
get out of town. He left after that performance and never returned. Some say
the events of that day had a traumatic effect on Elvis. A PBS documentary
quotes Elvis as saying "I'll never forget louie". It is still not certain
just where he is at today. Hound dog's ass.
