Default Elvis O Rama

This is a museum dedicated to Elvis Presley. The center piece of this museum is aptly named The Elvis O Rama. It is a mural painted by a little known country music artist, Mitchell Torok,

It is 85 feet long and 10 foot high. It originally stood in Nashville Tennessee. Back then you could sign it for a whole three dollars. The artists goal was to get a million signatures which was eventually achieved.

You can't sign it anymore but you are encouraged to see if you can find the signatures of some now famous persons.

The museum houses many of Elvis's belongings. You can see his original blue suede shoes. These are only one of many things exhibited and the gift shop has many things for sale.

3401 Industrial Road

Now that is one place I would love to see!! I am a BIG Elvis fan!! I went to Graceland and toured that. It was amazing to see where he lived and died. I saw a lot of his things there. Loved his jungle room.

I must hang my head in shame and admit I am not real big on Elvis. Almost everyone I know loves the music he made and the movies as well but I am not a big fan. I guess I am just one of those people who have to be different lol.

Lol, see... this is what I always hear when I admit Elvis isn't my cup of tea. lol. I think he is ok and all, I just don't go crazy when I hear an Elvis song or see a pic of him like lots of people do.

My sister is a HUGE Elvis fan. Do you know if you're allowed to take pictures while you're there? I doubt she can get to Vegas anytime soon....
