Erik Seidel is one of the most successful (albeit quiet) players in poker. He has eight WSOP bracelets, a WPT title and an EPT title. Over the long career, the New Yorker has accumulated more than $34.5 million in live action and was inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame in 2010. He recently traveled to Las Vegas for the Super High Roller Bowl (SHRB), but was sent to the rail early in the tournament. Since he was in Vegas with nothing else to do, he decided he wanted to see the first game of NHL’s Stanley Cup championship between the Vegas Golden Knights and the Washington Capitals, and set out to score a couple of hard-to-find tickets. His wish was answered, but they came with a strange twist—he had to dress as Elvis Presley.

On May 27, Seidel posted on Twitter, “Looking for 2 Golden Knights [tickets] for [tomorrow]…” The following morning, he returned to Twitter, saying that his request had been answered. He didn’t specify the supplier, but tweeted, “Got offered Golden Knights tickets on the glass, but I’d have to dress as Elvis.  I love this town.”

In photos published on Twitter, the 58-year-old Seidel was seen in costume, along with about 11 other Elvis impersonators. He didn’t have the famous Elvis sunglasses or sideburns, but he did wear a rhinestone white jumpsuit often associated with “The King.” All of the impersonators were wearing the same jumpsuit—many with the sideburns and glasses—and they all had the Golden Knights logo emblazoned on the back.
