'Elvis didn't drink that much, but there were times that he tried it. For a while, probably '63, he got on it hot and heavy. It was almost like Elvis needed to see what thebig thrill was.
That went on for maybe four or five months, mostly when we went to Vegas. There were times, but not every day, when we would just get totally drunk. He would drink mostly vodka and tonic. And then, it was over, and he hardly touched it again.
He could hold his alcohol pretty well though. It might be affecting him, but he'd still walk a straight line. He would get up and go to the bathroom, and nobody would be the wiser.'
