Well, it wasn't NFL but he did attend a few Grizzlies game, technically.

Elvis was a Browns fan before anyone knew who Lawler was, but I guess there is room for two Browns fans in Memphis.

So does this mean we hate Lawler now?

RE: Elvis in the house today?
In 1991, Presley joined Dunavant, Memphis-bred venture capitalist Paul Tudor Jones II, and Federal Express founder Fred Smith in a pursuit team for a proposed NFL expansion franchise, the Memphis Hound Dogs. Still stinging from public criticism for his lack of hands-on involvement in Memphis' unsuccessful bid to land the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Presley took public lead of the NFL pursuit. In 1993, the NFL announced Memphis, Charlotte, Jacksonville, and Baltimore as finalists, eventually awarding teams to Charlotte and Memphis.
On September 9, 1995, the Memphis Hound Dogs debuted before a sold-out crowd in a refurbished Liberty Bowl, renamed Vernon Presley Memorial Stadium, losing to the Cleveland Browns 21-10. Presley performed his "American Trilogy" at halftime of the nationally televised game.

That was quite a feat for a man who'd been dead for 18 years.
