It would only be some crazy and pointless post if this story wasn’t telling a lot about our celebrity-obsessed culture; The BBC reports that a pair of Elvis Presley’s underpants are expected to reach up to £10,000 (about $16,000) at auction of Presley pop memorabilia in Stockport, Greater Manchester, next month.
But the best part of the whole thing is that the pants are unwashed and still soiled with stains! Elvis wore them during a stage performance in 1977, underneath one of his famous white jumpsuits, and who knows what happened then? He peed a little bit in his pants because he was too excited, too much on drugs? I wonder, was it in Las Vegas? Because you know what they say, what happened in Vegas should stay in Vegas.
That’s totally disgusting to spend that amount of money for a pee stain, but if they predict such a sum I guess they know what they are talking about, the pants will sell and the pee stain will be framed and hung on some maniac’s living room wall.
Presley's personal Bible (handwritten notes included), personal film footage taken from Priscilla Presley’s own personal home movies (wedding footage included) will also be sold at this auction.
I wonder what piece of Presley hasn’t been sold yet, but honestly how low can they go and what could be next? Other body fluids? Or worst? And the weirdest thing is that someone has kept this spoiled underwear for 35 years in a closet somewhere… yuck!
