Inter-Planetary
Weight Chart
The King weighed a hunka-hunking 255 pounds when he "died" in 1977 from wolfing down too many peanut butter and barbiturate sandwiches.
But some fans still cling strongly to the (half-baked) notion that Elvis is alive, rocking out at some secluded cabin up North only to be spotted about as often as Sasquatch by the occasional convince store clerk.
The truly loony toon claim Elvis was abducted from the Graceland grounds by extraterrestrial music fans, alien aficionados who couldn't bear to let the "Big E" squander his talent at the buffet table. Actually these mad ramblings do hold a grain of possibility.
What if these "space-groupies" did kidnap the King?
What would an inter-stellar Elvis weigh in at?
If Elvis were taken elsewhere in the Solar System his weight would have really fluctuated.
From the Sun's massive super-sized Elvis to Pluto's waif-like specimen.
The alien kidnap theory also poses the ultimate tour possibilities.
If one wanted to see a slimmer E reminiscent of his early days, just jet off to Mars for a svelte-Elvis treat.
But it's tough to keep the King in lightweight contention. No problem! If you want the slightly chunky and more sedate jumpsuit-era Elvis, Venus is your stage of choice.
Hell, for a real change of pace Pluto offers up pint-sized mini-Elvis of sorts with the King weighing in at a mere 13 pounds.
The new surroundings would also offer up new song opportunities, like a rocking rendition of "Viva Neptune" performed on the "Aloha from Mercury" television special.
What better place to sing "Burning Love" than from the surface of the sun?
So here it is, see for yourself how much a planet hopping Elvis would have tipped the scales.
