Sad to see him leave.

...but the funeral should be cool, I heard that the hearse will be jumping over 256 mourners (stacked 12 by 12). At the jumps highest point, Elvis' casket will be released from the hearse and make a perfect landing in the 6 by 6 grave. Weather permitting, the top row of mourners will be set ablaze.
