Elvis Presley would have turned 73 on Jan. 8 and once again in his honor, Potawatomi Bingo Casino presents "A Tribute to the King," from Jan 7 through 10. Nearly 20 Elvis impersonators will descend into the Menomonee Valley to compete for more than $40,000 in prize money at the annual event.

The top prize of $25,004 is the largest of its kind in the country. The competition runs four days with preliminary rounds at noon, 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. Jan. 7 through Jan. 9. A "wild card" round follows at 2 p.m. Jan. 10. The winners of the rounds then compete for the Grand Championship at 8 p.m. Jan. 10.

All of the preliminary rounds are free, but tickets for the final round are $25, $35 and $45. All of the events take place in the Northern Lights Theater.

For tickets, call Potawatomi's ticket office at (414) 847-7922.
