They had his racket and ball.
Afterthe racquetball game Elvis sat at this piano and played two songs, "Blue Eyes Cryin' in the Rain" and "Unchained Melody." I don't think anyone is positive which song he sang last. Then he walked to the main house to wash his hair and go to bed.

Early in the morning on the day he died, Elvis, his girlfriend Ginger Alden, his first cousin Billy Smith and Billy's wife Jo played a game of racquetball.
Elvis tried racquetball in the early '70s and liked it so much he had his own court built. It had a weight training area on the ground floor, full-sized racqeutball court and a Jacuzzi and dressing rooms upstairs. It was completed in 1975. It cost about $200,000. Elvis took so much pride in the effort he personally supervised the constructions.
