Location: Richland Center, WI. | OK, I feel I must explain myself! As magruter would tell you I sometimes???? view this site while I am at work. Kids were holding the computer hostage last night so I did not get to check the contest until I got to work this morning. I panicked so I grabbed the digital camera and took a picture of a group of pictures on my office wall in the office. Contest did not say it had to be a good picture right?

Location: Twin Cities | Elvis was a black belt in karate. He took up martial arts under the shotokan sensei Jürgen Seydal, while fulfilling his military duties in Germany in 1958. He was awarded his black belt before he returned to the United States, in 1960, by the chito-ryu instructor Hank Slemansky. Elvis’s love of martial arts continued throughout his life. His favourite form of fighting became American Kenpo.

Location: Illinois | Elvis wanted to serve America in anyway possible and once wrote a letter to president Nixon offering his help to infiltrate the "hippie" drug culture and the black panthers as a "Federal Agent At Large".
Why this is special because he became a "Federal Agent in the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs" This is particularly ironic when Elvis's autopsy later found 14 drugs in his system, including: Codeine - Morphine - Quaaludes - Valium - Diazepam - Placidyl - Amytal - Nembutal - Carbrital - Demerol - Sinutab - Elavil - Avental - Valmid.

Location: Twin Cities | 2. Aside from three concerts in Canada, Elvis never performed outside the United States.
This is special because it is also the only two places the muskie is found. |

Location: Richland Center, WI. | Elvis had a twin brother who died at birth (stillborn). His name was Jesse Garon Presley. Why is this special, why not have a conspirisy theory. All these Elvis sightings is really the dead twin!!!! (had to try something) |

| Presley’s body was discovered at 2:30 p.m. Memphis time by his road manager, Jerry Esposito, in a bathroom in the singer’s multimillion-dollar Graceland Mansion. He was rushed to the Baptist Memorial, where he was met by his personal physician, Dr. George C. Nichopoulos, and pronounced dead.

Location: Illinois | The Elvis Sandwich (sometimes simply "The Elvis") is a fried sandwich consisting of peanut butter, bananas, and sometimes bacon. It was supposedly one of Elvis Presley's favorite foods in his final years.
This is special because it's terrific! Try one: Take two pieces of white bread and toast them. Spread peanut butter on one side and put sliced bananas on top of the peanut butter. Add cooked bacon. Fry sandwich on a pan with melted butter. Enjoy!
Mike Witowski
ps- I bring at least two of these things along for a snack when I go musky fishing! Then I proceed to talk musky with whoever I'm fishing with in an Elvis voice.

Location: Hayward, WI | When Elvis was 11 years old, his mother Gladys bought him a $13 guitar. When he was 13 she bought him an $11 guitar. This is significant because he may have never started his music career without that jumpstart in music.
