Elvis came in 6th place at the Mississippi-Alabama Fair in 1945. The photographs of the winners clearly show Elvis in blond hair wearing over shaped clear glasses.
He received, for coming in 6th place, $5.00 in tickets to ride the rides and to play games. He recalled that he got lost about time and when he got home his Mother gave him a whipping (as he was really late) and she was worried about him.
Elvis said he remembered that day because it was the best day of his (then) life but after getting whipped by his mother it became the worst day of his (then) life.
