Career Facts:
If tacky is what you like (and it better be) then working as an Elvis Minister should be just up your alley. Most of these modern day de-facto clowns work in the most beautiful city in the world, Las Vegas. For those of you who have been to Las Vegas, there is no need to point out the obvious sarcasm. For the rest of you, that was sarcasm. Las Vegas is the kind of place where one can get married by a person dressed up as “The King.” That sure does sound like a lot of fun doesn’t it?
You might naturally be wondering how one lands such an awesome job. First, you need to tackle becoming an ordained minister. After that you need to get some sort of Elvis act down. Now this act can be very, very bad and it simply won’t matter. The exceeding strange thing is that any Elvis impersonation no matter how poorly executed, somehow still seems accurate. On this point you have nothing to worry about. If you do feel that this is your calling, you probably will have to live in Las Vegas, but that’s just the way it is.
