November 23, 1976
There was a bit of trouble at the gates of Graceland. This was the second night in a row that Jerry Lee Lewis appeared at the gates in the early morning. He was waving with a gun and demanded to see Elvis. According to witnesses he was screaming and cursing, and the police said that the singer was sitting in his car with a loaded 38 derringer resting on his knee when they arrived. Elvis watched the whole thing on the closed-circuit monitors.

If Elvis was watching the whole thing on CCTV - I wonder why he didn't go down to the gate and help Jerry Lee out after the police arrived?

Maybe he thought Jerry deserved a night in jail.

Or maybe he was having fun in seeing that ludicrous scene!!

What happened with Jerry Lee Lewis? It seems his nose was hurt.

Why on earth should he have helped that crazy fool?? Who knows what he´d done had he gotten to meet Elvis...with a gun...you can´t argue with a sick mind, and I do believe that Jerry Lee was sick and crazy.
