Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash - who also performed that night - were both part of a package tour headlined by country star Webb Pierce at the Sheffield Community Center on the night of August 2, 1955.
After an outrageous onstage flirtation, the twenty-year-old singer asked the seventeen-year-old high school student for a date on the scrap of paper he was using to sign an autograph after the show.
The couple headed out in Elvis's pink Cadillac Fleetwood Series Sixty only to find themselves leading a spontaneous parade of vehicles through the small town streets. After stopping at a roadside diner for a late night repast of soda pop and burnt bacon sandwiches, they began an ongoing discussion about life, love, fame, and destiny. Unknown to Caroline at the time, Elvis had just come to a historic crossroads in his life.
