    How incredibly famous was Elvis that future superstars from every walk of life proudly tell their "meeting Elvis" story as if that's one of the greatest moments of their lives.

      I remember hearing Paul McCartney recall meeting Elvis with John, George and Ringo. Even Paul was awestruck meeting The King and this was in the later half of the 60's so The Beatles were absolutely massive when this happened.
