Assassin Posted April 3, 2024 Posted April 3, 2024 Tupelo Flash. He was the entertainment at EOT 1998.
Yul Lose Posted April 3, 2024 Author Posted April 3, 2024 Did you all like him better on Cowboys TV or when he was Elvis?
Billy Boots, # 20282 LTG-Regulator Posted April 3, 2024 Posted April 3, 2024 Good competitor, entertainer, and just fun to be around. As I remember he was one of the entertainers at Judge and Kate's wedding. As was Dusty Rogers and band. Miss seeing Flash.

I believe at one time his Elvis act was the number 1 concert venue in Japan for many years. Boy did he know how to get sponsors and vendors for the annual matches.
Dantankerous Posted April 3, 2024 Posted April 3, 2024 Saw him at EoT. Maybe 2009? He got up on stage with FJT's band and whooped it up good! A very good entertainer, show host and after talking to him learned he is a gracious fella and gentleman. I'd love to see him again.

Yul Lose Posted April 3, 2024 Author Posted April 3, 2024 When I was getting started Tequila was on his way out, I think I remember him on a few shows. Tupelo Flash on the other hand, I guess because I knew him personally, I really enjoyed him on the show. Maybe the Elvis demeanor turned a few people off but he was sure a promoter of CAS and SASS.
Sixgun Seamus Posted April 3, 2024 Posted April 3, 2024 Watching Tequila and Tupelo is what got me interested in SASS.
The Rainmaker, SASS #11631 Posted April 3, 2024 Posted April 3, 2024 Both great for SASS; be good to get more exposure like they provided on national TV.

Been to a few of his Outdoor Channel gatherings when in Vegas. He was glad to have someone there to represent his show where most there were for hunting shows. We, Handlebar Doc, Longhunter, Kirkpartick Kid &/or Briso were often in town for SASS convention and/or SHOT show so a few cowboys in costume and SHOOT magazine staff was welcome site for The Cowboy show's hosts., Flash or Tequila.
Lone Spur Jake SASS #7728 Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 Whether in Vegas as Elvis, or at a CAS match or on TV as Tupelo Flash, he was a lot of fun, and a lot of folks may have got interested in CAS because of him. Met him at a monthly match at Norco and enjoyed talking with him.
