'I felt Elvis needed some fun and some distraction, so I suggested we go to the Monday-night Wrestling Matches at Ellis Auditorium. A guy from our neighbourhood was the stage manager on those nights, and he brought us in the back door and sat us in the VIP section on the stage side of the Wrestling ring. Elvis really enjoyed watching the lady wrestlers take each other on.

Elvis was particularly impressed by an attractive wrestler named penny banner, and was happily Suprised when, after her match, she came over to where we were sitting to tell Elvis what a big fan of his she was.

'Well, I like the way you wrestle, honey,' was his response.

So, Elvis being Elvis, he wasn't going to let the opportunity to get closer to a lady wrestler slip away.

Penny banner ended up coming back to Graceland with us.

Let me know what you think!! xoxo
