At my best friends house. He and I were playing and then heard his mom crying. We went in the room where she was and he asked her what was wrong and she said Elvis had died. I took off running home to see my mama and she was sitting in the kitchen crying as well.
My parents and aunt and uncle were all friends with him. He used to rent out a local football stadium late at night sometimes for a game of pickup football and my dad and uncle were always invited to play by Elvis. The stories were great and sounds like good times. He was a great man with a lot of demons though.

Was at my babysitters house when we heard. I remember the next door neighbor girl, a senior in HS, out on the front lawn kicking & screaming, throwing a fit like a 3 year old.
