I saw the original King Tut exhibit in Seattle when it toured back in about 1978. I had met up with a young lady who was an anthropology student and suggested that we go see this exhibit. Now at the time my life consisted of working my normal job, playing in a garage band, wearing my hair a bit long and just having a good time, so how she decided I would be a good companion on this trip was a bit beyond me.
Not wanting to appear uncultured at all, I agreed that it was a good idea and off we went. We stood in line for a couple hours and saw the exhibit and then went and did the Pikes Market and waterfront thing. She suggested we should probably find a place to stay for the night if we were planning on clubbing a bit that night. Done deal. Ended up staying another night after that. Came back home, had a few more encounters then she went on some foreign expedition to dig up dead sh*t somewhere and I was just left with the memories of a cultured young lady.
So yeah, I saw the OG King Tut.
