(Gibson) Edison Pe�a, the Chilean miner who rose to fame when it came to light after his rescue that he was a devout Elvis Presley fan, finally got his wish. As promised, Pe�a was flown to Memphis by a group of area businesses and tourism organizations to tour Graceland.

By the time he reached the end of the tour, Pe�a said he felt "paralyzed." He told commercialappeal.com, "How can I describe something so amazing? Just coming in the driveway, you feel moved."

He added, when asked, that his favorite part of the tour was the display of jumpsuits The King wore in concert. Pe�a also broke out in song with short renditions of "Blue Suede Shoes," "Heartbreak Hotel" and "Suspicious Minds." more on this story
