So interesting. I’ve always assumed that if you set foot over the fence, day or night, you’d be epically stopped within seconds by first-class security technology and guards. (I’m from Memphis but live elsewhere now) I really miss the old pavilion across the street. I spent many hours there as a kid in the 90’s while my dad worked, and as an adult in the 2000’s when I would go take the tour. The ‘diner’ near the airplane tour had a good peanut-butter-and-banana sandwich. I still remember the smell of the shops, and the smell of the main ticket center. I remember the feeling of being in those stores, enamored with everything. And, the old restaurant down by the car museum had some absolutely delicious barbecue. It was truly a fun place to spend time - Elvis music playing over the speakers, ice cream, souvenirs. Those were the days!

Thanks for the story Spa Guy. In 1989, I was a freshman in high school when my mom took us to Graceland on vacation in 1989.

I went to Graceland as a kid, I think it was in 1989 so that would have made me 9 years old. The tour bus was there, I remember that. Got to see the airplanes and the shopping center you mentioned was still there. His cars were still outside under the carport! Didn't get to see as much of the house as you can now as Aunt Delta still lived there. We think we saw her, not sure, but there was a little old lady walking outside in an area that tourists weren't allowed. That was kinda cool. Anyway, I really want to go back as I know so much has changed since then. Someday! Someday I'll get there! Great story, Spa Guy! Enjoy all your videos

what a great story and memories for you - thanks for sharing ⚡💛⭐

Ha! Great story and I'm sure it was a great adventure! So you have been sitting on this for 30years. Makes me wonder what else you're holding back! lol! As always, thanks for sharing.

I remember the video, thanx for telling the story. So much has changed. Back then you were a beginning investigator. No digital camera's or mobile phones... Thank you Spa Guy ❤

"Back then, I don't recall that light being there, either." Graceland employees still refer to it as the Spa Guy spotlight.

Great 👍 thanks Phil from Liverpool UK 🇬🇧

Spa Guy, this is a great and unique story! You sure were Brave in 1988 Producing the video in 2018 And finally bringing it to us In 2024 Great video Thank You for sharing we enjoyed watching. Arrivederci!

Great video

Love this! I will always remember this story as the first time I ever saw a Spa Guy video and been a fan of yours ever since. Enjoyed the pictures you took so much! Appreciate all your work!

Great story and great shots for an old SLR without a tripod. You are in good fence jumping company with Bruce Springsteen, his jump was 1976 if I recall. Thanks for sharing.

Spa Guy, this is the first time hearing your story. You had the nerve to do it (not saying it in a negative way), but you are a true, true Elvis fan. Should I call the light there now and lock on the gate now the Spa Guy light and lock? Ha. I wonder if security looked at what kind of footwear you had on, and looked the next day for footwear prints? Ha. It was smart of you to hide the film taken, just wish the pics turned out better for you. I am surprised security held you for what time they did, but on the other hand, they were looking out for Graceland, still for Elvis, and for the family. I am glad you mentioned not to do this today, what the security is today. (I think it was Bruce Springsteen who got over the fence, think got near the front door, but then security approached him. I think he was not well known then too.) I did love hearing your story jumping over the Graceland fence. Do you mind saying what age you were then? If not, that is okay. ❤FROM ANOTHER TRUE ELVIS FAN❤

LMAO..."Is this Graceland?" No, it's the Vatican! 😂 It seems like Elvis's security cameras back in the day did the trick. Gate jumpers seemed to always get caught, even back then, beit by Elvis, gate guards, or Memphis Mafia. The Graceland and other pics and videos from your 1988 inaugural visit are awesome. I remember several years ago seeing your video of visiting Elvis's original tomb that same weekend. Any pictures with a younger Spa Guy in them though? Would love to see younger Billy. 😎

Such a wild and crazy Spa Guy!! Lol 😊

You have nothing to worry about because the Statute of Limitations has passed so the law is not coming for the Spa Guy

Spa Guy it is a long time you first-time jumping the fence at Graceland. I would have been scàr ed to jump the fence beìng niĝhttimè or anytimè. Too bad you didn't havè a tripod to get better pictures but it made for an adventure. Thank you, Spa Guy for doing Elvis video's for us. ❤🎉😅

I remember when I was in 8th grade my friends and I would watch your hot tub repo videos and laugh our asses off. I don’t know why we found it so amusing🤷‍♂️ I guess the thought of being able to drain and trailer a fully running hot tub from someone’s back yard in less than 30 minutes without a trace was appealing to us😂😂

Great story Billy 💪🙏✌❤🙋🏼‍♀️💞

Nice personal story. Only wish heed mentioned the tripod. At least you got some pics. Glad you shared it. Thanks Spaguy 👍 🙏

I enjoyed the story , what an adventure!

Another fine installment with the Spa Guy. Billy, have you ever eaten at Marlowe's BBQ down front Graceland ? I had the full rack of ribs. When I was there 15 years ago that was a darn good place to eat ..

Thank you so much for sharing this!! I've been to Graceland and I definitely want to go back.

Thanks for sharing Spa Guy, you and Bruce Springsteen have something in common, lol... Darealdeal

You rascal you! The great Spa Guy; Elvis’ No. 1 fan. That was a cool Thunderbird! Thank you for all your great content!

Enjoyed the story, what a great adventure 30 years ago! Thanks for sharing!😍

Lmbo I love this story, it would have been hard for me not to do it either,I’m glad you had the guts to do it,😂 thank you for sharing with us still lmbo😂😂😂😂

Thanks Billy. That’s funny! When you go back to get your film ?

Great video also you are my favorite KZfaqr

Great Elvis Story

This is awesome & it never gets old! Love It! TCB

I remember you telling your fence jumping story a number of years ago 😅 !! Only you Mr. Spa Guy. Loved hearing the story again. Safe travels and adventures. God bless you and your family 🙏.

Love you Spa Guy! It’s been along time coming. I’m back though. 😘

Awesome video

Great story & vid! Lived in Memphis from 95-00. I have been in the bus that used to be there! There was a “stash of cash” behind plexiglass that was found after Elvis’ passing. Good times!

Nice to share this fun story and adventure with us. I would have liked to have been there and experienced that evening and night. Graceland is and will remain magical just as Elvis Presley the GOAT will always remain! Not a day goes by without a story and music from Elvis Presley the GOAT!🫶

The only way to start a legend is that Elvis Presley is a legend that's a fact 💯

You have some serious guts! I could never do it. I'm chicken lol. Great story.

Great story of yours Billy thank you . From Sydney Australia ❤🇭🇲

Great story ‘ TCB ⚡️

Wow! That happened on my 11th birthday back on independence day 1988. Cool stories ❤

I remember the video. Hilarious!

I'm assuming he told you to adjust & use those camera settings because he assumed you would be shooting the night sky. At least he didn't just jump to conclusions & assume you were a peeping Tom when you asked about taking pics in the dark. 😂 Great story & pics though. Thanks for sharing the experience with us.

don't be afraid to storm the graceland fence who's behind the golf cart secretly maybe lisa

Love this story Billy of your own private tour of Graceland minus the admission ticket! You could have said you arrived late for the morning walk up to the graves and couldn’t stay till the morning so you were going to the Meditation Garden before you had to leave! What an experience and love your 1988 secret tour! TCB⚡️Have a Happy and Sade Memorial Day! Take Care!🇺🇸😎👍

Spa Guy, is this a repost? I could swear I saw you tell this story before, and you showed some of the blurry pictures. Great story either way.

Have you done any recent things with Graceland lately? Si much seems to have changes. Seen a comment somewhere the person they drive by there everyday going yo eork and barely see anyone there😢😢

A bus owned by Elvis supposedly was. Brought by a guy named Ron Lusby and sat at his shop where he had his ambulance and wrecker service for years in pine bluff Arkansas... Mr Lusby has passed away and I'm not sure if it's still there

Billy you’re so funny !

What a great story would of love to been their to see that thanks billy

Cool story

Hi, cool

I'm curious what happened to the stuff from the barn they didn't use...

Hey Spa Guy, I am a big fan of Elvis, I have a question for you since you have been to Graceland several times and you own the Ambulance and the Dojo that Elvis died In and trained in do you ever feel his presence in the Ambulance or inside the dojo ?

This is scary. Memphis is the 4th most dangerous city in the US even before Chicago. This street is scary AF I've been there even at 6pm I would not walk alone around o.o stay safe!

What’s in the guard house? A bathroom? Bed? Always wondered 😊. Thanks

Did they tow your car away? Lol

What do you think about the attempt to foreclose on Graceland which appears to be a scam at this point? I don't believe there is any way Lisa used Graceland as collateral on a loan. Do you possibly have a list of books and movies Elvis kept in his private bedroom you could share?

Go Live Billy you can do it! I got confidence in you'll get your good pics after 30+ years. Who cares if they catch ya, what's the most they'll do? It's time you need a good Viral going for ya, you know the layout pluse you'll be testing the security, 🎶 bump-bump, Go Billy,Go billy ✌️😉"

I guess in 1988 they had so much stuff that belong to Elvis they were still trying to figure out what to do with it all. ..

Only 11 years after he passed away

@Scrapheap If he gets caught again, all he'll have to do is say "I'm the Spa Guy!" n they'll let it slide! LoL!

They should fix up Vernon house and pool and air b n b it.

Did they tow your car away? lol

If limitations was a statue, I wonder what it wouid look like 🤔 Lol!

w.t.f is that

Spa Guy, what do you think about Graceland maybe up for auction? What is your take on this? Is it a complete fraud, or is it legit?

I Have A Wreath, (in a wooden box, behind Glass, )from Elvis’s Graceland Burial, that His Uncle Vester, gave Me, right After they Moved him, because My Ex Deceased Husband Bob Kendall buried Elvis. I Have Everything Authenticated Now after this 40 Something years. Do You Know Anyone that Would want To Buy It? I want to Help Some Charity with Proceeds. Thank You.

You should retest yourself an do it again but get in and out quicker about it, I can tell by the look on you ya want to do it! 😂

Hey spa guy great awesome store and adventure, next year I’m gonna book an Elvis tour with you if you’re still doing that. Thanks brother and I hope you get the Elvis dojo karate is back to uou
