Hattiesburg, Mississippi - Elvis Is Alive Museum

Andy Key, who bought the artifacts of the original Elvis Is Alive Museum on e-Bay in late 2007, has now opened his own version of it in Hattiesburg, Mississippi along with a few extra exhibit items that he was able to obtain. It's part of his new eatery called Sivle's Grill which besides having the usual foods found at a roadside grill, also has peanut butter and banana sandwiches which was Elvis's favorite food! Two very good reasons to check this place out. [Rich Braham, 07/03/2008]

Hattiesburg, Mississippi - Elvis is Alive Museum

That's right, this piece of wackiness is closing [in Wright City, MO]. Bill Beeny has announced its closure and he has put all his memorabilia up for sale on eBay. He hopes someone will buy everything and open a museum of their own to keep the fight alive. [sbaker, 11/03/2007]

[RA: July 2008: The museum has reopened in Hattiesburg, MS. Nov 2007: The collection is moving to Mississippi, either to Laurel, Jackson, or Hattiesburg. Winning eBay bidder Andy Key intends to reopen it with the Elvis is Alive theme.]

Elvis Presley toilet paper. Hattiesburg, Mississippi - Elvis is Alive Museum

Dr. Beeny (yes, he's a Dr.) is still running the museum/real estate office. He has now added de-classified files released by the FBI that he'll tell you about. It was free to browse around and ask any questions. Bill is a very friendly fellow indeed! He also has a streaming radio broadcast as well (mightystreamradio.com) that mixes his Elvis is Alive views and "religious awareness."

We thought it was a good stop on our way to Graceland. It was good for a chuckle if nothing else. [Wendy Osmek, 03/24/2007]

[RA: November 2007: Bill Beeny is shutting down his museum, and has placed the collection on eBay, in the hopes that someone else will buy it all and continue the museum.]
