Actually, my friend just saw his image in a pickle she was eating. Ok. It didn’t look that much like him. But we thought we might make a buck by sending the pic into the National Enquirer anyway…

Went to Disneyland in April, and out of the corner of my eye, I \*swear \*he passed right by me, as I was walking past the Pirates of the Carribean. He was in a Hawaiian shirt and shorts, in full sunglass/sideburn glory.

I ran into him in a grocery store in Waterloo once. He was visiting his girlfriend there.

Oh, wait, you did mean Elvis Stojko, didn’t you?

Real sighting? Back when I worked in retail, late 80’s, we had a regular customer who looked a lot like Elvis; same face, hair, and size (Vegas era). This was in Columbus, OH - at Graceland Shopping Center.

Not Elvis, but if you’re looking for Alphonse, you found him. But answer quick. I don’t like to wait.

I’ve got Elvis on board.  
He’ll show his face when Elian leaves, probably in 5-6 years. Doesn’t want anyone upstaging his comback.
