i got some extra tickets to tomorrow's concert wherever we are? saginaw? a block of tickets, on the second or third row, from Elvis to whoever wants em... it'd be a whole row, but there weren't enough tickets left... Joe Esposito was in front of the coliseum, after the show started, when Jackie was doing the comedy warm-up before i go on and everybody knew I was Elvis-- I had my badge on and I was talkin' to people and I would decide who wanted to get in the most and give them tickets. I was able to give tickets to small people who were there just hoping to get a glimpse of me, not only did they get to see me, but they had the best seats in the house.
we visited this place October 14 and 15 last year. e
