It was such a pleasure having Dwayne The Rock Johnson at Elvis Presley’s Graceland! Repost: Sitting on the steps of Graceland at midnight - under the stars - feeling the mana, toasting the King and singing one of my favorite songs in keys that don’t exist 😉🎶 🥃 👑 ❤️ I grew up a huge Elvis fan and as a little boy we lived in a trailer park not too far from Graceland and we’d drive by these gates all the time - and I’d sit, stare and dream. A grateful and loving thank you to Angie Marchese, Ali
