Well, she got his signature (”he was the politest thing you ever did see”) and she had walked about halfway to the exit when she realized that he had kept her pen by mistake.

And, my dudes....... leave it to my grandmother to turn around, march right back up to his table, and ask Elvis Presley, the King of Rock N Roll, for her pen back. “His eyes had got this big and his eyebrows had jumped up, but he apologized just as sweet as can be and gave it right back.”

Man, what I would give to see a picture of that. She said she still had his signature somewhere. Anyway. Wild.
