Elvis, Jumbotron Slut

If you have ever had the desire to get on the Jumbotron at a stadium or arena just dress like Elvis.  Same goes for a televised sporting event.  I am not sure why sports directors/stadium staff have such a hard on for this costume but they do.  Think about it.  My guess is the production truck direction goes something like this:  "camera one on the huddle, camera two give me the head coach...go.  Camera three give me some sexy cheerleaders.  Go to camera one.....holy shit!  Screw that!  I see a kid dressed as Elvis in the student section!  For God's sake get me two camera angles on that genius.  How is it the second quarter and I am just finding out about this clever guy.  Fire the spotter STAT!"  

The guy has been dead for over 30 years yet he still gets more run than the mascot for the home team.  If I dressed as Albert Einstein one game and Elvis the next, which game do you think I am getting on TV?  Sad really.
