My favorite part:

“This is the only surviving television or appliance that Elvis shot out that was kept,” said Kevin Kern, a spokesman for Graceland, Presley’s longtime Memphis residence.

Presley, it seems, had a habit of occasionally breaking out a firearm from his gun collection and opening fire at TVs and other items.

As the story goes, entertainer Robert Goulet was performing on TV when Presley blasted the 25-inch RCA that’s part of the exhibit called “Elvis After Dark.”

“There was nothing Elvis had against Robert Goulet. They were friends,” Kern said. “But Elvis just shot out things on a random basis.”

If I had guns, and Elvis’ money, I would shoot a couple of TVs a week. I’m sure of it.
