Elvis, Billy and other Memphis Mafia members were seated in a movie theatre in Memphis, Tennessee when the police found out The King was there.
They wanted to meet him and Elvis was a big supporter of local law enforcement so was happy to say hello.

Elvis asked how they knew they were sex workers and the police said how they had wigs on that didn’t quite fit right, plus you could tell from how they were dressed.
The King then had an idea and asked the police if he could borrow them.
Being Elvis Presley they let him, so he put on the black one while Billy used the blonde.
His cousin noted: “Naturally Elvis had to have to black one.”

The pair then went back into the movie theatre to see how long it would be before the others would notice.
Very quickly the other Memphis Mafia members could tell Billy was wearing a blonde wig, even in the dark.
However, no one had noticed the difference with Elvis’, so he tried to get people to see, but had no luck.
In the end, Billy knew he had to intervene with the prank.

To which Billy replied: “But nobody knew you had it on anyway!”
