October 18, 1956: Dont mess with The King: 21-year-old Elvis Presley pulled into a Memphis gas station to get his car serviced, and he started to attract a small crowd of autograph seekers. After repeatedly asking Elvis to move on so he could resume normal business, station manager Ed Hopper slapped Presley on the head- and Elvis punches him in the face! Station employee Aubrey Brown tried to help his boss, but was no match for Presley. After police are called, Hopper and Brown were arrested, charged with assault and were fined, Hopper for $25 and Brown for $15.
