Singing.

Reading.

Spending time with family/friends/loved ones.

Karate (which Elvis achieved a black belt in several different Martial Arts styles including becoming an 8th degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do and a black belt in Kempo)

Riding Horses

Going to the movies (which he purchased the entire movie theatre for late night viewing)

Riding motorcycles and anything "fast" that had an engine (i.e. Golf carts, three wheelers, etc.)

Lastly, Elvis was a very religious/spiritual person who was on a life long quest for answers about life - why he had been so blessed with success - and seeking strength/forgiveness for his shortcomings.

YES, Elvis played sports.

Elvis actually went out for his High School football team as a tight end but did not make the team. However, Elvis routinely played pick-up football games during the early 1950s and continuing (as Elvis organized not only his own team but a league to play other teams) throughout the 1960's.

Additionally, Elvis was involved in the Martial Arts/Karate (i.e. Tae Kwon Do, Kempo, etc.) and earned an 8th degree black belt.

Elvis tried out for the Humes High School, in Memphis Tennessee, football team his Junior year in High School (approximately) 1952 and Elvis was (approximately) 17 years old.

Elvis, being Elvis even then, refused to cut his hair which was a condition of being on the team.

Throughout his life he loved football not only watching it (note: he had 3 TV's set up at Graceland so he could watch more than one football game at a time) but also playing organized football and even just throwing the football around.
