This is a beautiful statue.

Yes, it's nothing like the well-known NBF equestrian monument in Nashville. That one is crude in comparison.

I would like to see this one moved to NBF State Park, about 120 miles from Memphis. Of course that would make the park itself a target of opportunity too.

Moving the two graves to Elmwood Cemetery is not the best idea. It was his original burial place, and where he wanted to be put to rest, but as we saw with Elvis' grave it isn't safe there (Elvis was originally there but after a grave-robbing near miss he was moved to Graceland). Elmwood is in downtown Memphis only a mile or so from the current NBF gravesite.
