Elvis Presley's Graceland will celebrate the Memphis Grizzlies and their success in reaching the 2013 NBA Playoffs by illuminating the exterior of the famous Memphis mansion in the team's signature colors of Beale Street Blue and Grizzlies Gold starting Tuesday, April 16 throughout the team's NBA Playoff run.
The Grizzlies are back in the Playoffs for the third consecutive year, and the City of Memphis is joining its team in "painting the town blue and gold." Many local landmarks will support the Grizzlies in unique ways throughout the postseason, while the Grizzlies will be all around the community as Grizz fever spreads in the Bluff City.
Graceland, the former home of Elvis Presley, the undisputed King of Rock 'n' Roll, is a national historic landmark, visited by over 600,000 guests annually from around the world.
