Creepy hearing this now, almost 42 years later...

I was 8. I had a posted of the ambulance rushing off from the Graceland gates and the text was Elvis' Rush for Life...or something close to those words.

Interesting how they called it "respiratory distress", a much more gentle way of saying he wasn't breathing. How times have changed.
