INFORMAL POLL: Graceland

Way better than the real Graceland, if you ask me.

 

Dear God, there's another one?[/facepalm]

 

Oh, yeah

 

I checked out the Holly Springs place. Pretty cool. When I mentioned it to a woman at the local visitor's center she didn't seem to proud of it.
And I did check out Elvis' first house in Tupelo, Miss. They have a little museum there with a lot of his stuff - don't think it cost more than $15 bucks.

 

That one, I think, I'd check out. I'm weird.

EDIT: I mean Tupelo, not whatever that pink atrocity is.

 

It helps to have a few beers before heading to Graceland Too. I was a student at Ole Miss the two or three times I went.

 

Went to Graceland several years ago and like others have said, it's fun ONCE. ... It's much smaller than I ever imagined it and if you get bored easily, it's likely not the place for you.

I don't recall the admission being $28 though. That's steep.
For $28, I want at least a happy ending.

 

Holy shit. I had to check... $28 is the cheapest ticket, and that goes up to $30 after Jan. 1.

Highest, btw, is $69.

People that go there tend to have suspicious minds.

 

I went like 12 years ago. I'm thinking it was about $18 back then. Not the Baseball Hall of Fame or anything, but you can't go to Memphis and not go.

And yeah, Graceland Too is worth seeing. Paul MacLeod is one weird cat.

 

Hey, and who knows, if you spend enough time in Tupelo, you might get a case of burning love.

 

It's not nearly as cool now that they've switched to the pre-recorded audio tours. Back when they had actual live tour guides, it was awesome.
