Elvis: Dead or Alive....Place Your Bets!

[olena]

LONDON (Reuters) - British gamblers are still convinced that Elvis has not left the building.
It may be 25 years since the death of the King of Rock 'n' Roll, but bookmakers William Hill are still taking bets on Elvis Presley being alive.
"We have just taken a bet of 50 pounds ($76.58) at odds of 1,000-1 that Elvis is still alive," William Hill spokesman Graham Sharpe said on the eve of the 25th anniversary of his death.
"We take scores of fiver and tenner (5-10 pound) bets each year on the same theme," he said in a statement.
"I know he would be an elderly gent were he still about -- but with a six figure payout on the cards we'd be the ones who were 'All Shook Up' if Elvis does reappear," he added.

ALthough physically I believe hes dead, the spirit still lives. I just love that a guy can be gone for so long and still be bringing in the most revenue for their music. I think he made a few million dollars last year. Not a bad gig.
