What happens in Vegas, usually stays in Vegas...
But sometimes it makes international news — especially when someone is clad in a flashy black jumpsuit and has a set of well-groomed porkchop sideburns...
That was the case Friday for Auburn University alum and Elvis impersonator Michael Jordan as O.J. Simpson’s guilty verdict was handed down in a Las Vegas courtroom. Jordan’s appearance at the Simpson sentencing was enough to land his face in several newspapers and television networks across the state and nation. Michael Jordan, who grew up and worked in the Columbus, Ga., and Smiths Station communities before moving to Las Vegas a couple of years ago to further his singing and acting career, sat in an overflow room of the Clark County Regional Justice Center as Simpson was sentenced.
“I’ve been following the Simpson case since it began in 1994 with the low-speed chase in that Ford Bronco,” said Jordan. “Now this is the final chapter in this saga.” In what is perhaps a bit of irony, Jordan, who shares his name with a more notable basketball player, was actually working at the Palace Station Hotel & Casino — the site of the robbery and kidnapping that later lead to Simpson’s conviction.
“I’m Michael Jordan, the Elvis impersonator at the O.J. sentencing,” laughed Jordan, who graduated from AU with a degree in Broadcast and Communications.
There’s so much irony at work there.”
“I knew that when O.J. got off on the murder trial that his behavior wouldn’t change and he’d be in trouble again,” added Jordan. “It turns out that it took a trip to the City of Sin to finally do O.J. in.”
The days of smoking blunts and slicing blonde bitches throats are over O.J...
Keep one eye open and ya' butt hole tight!

It sounds as if you are a man of experience? must be nice to have your competition eliminated. hey maybe your days as a fake elvis will do you in as well? get a real job jordan!
To the anonymous & likely forgotten comment posted following my national appearance at the OJ Trial in Las Vegas, the next best known Michael Jordan (as Elvis, but you think of me as the "Vanilla Frosty") would again like to say I was honored to be a part of history. I talked about the original OJ Trial on Maury Povich in Spring of 1995, & never thought I would again be in the national media talking about OJ while attending his final trial. I've been in & out of radio, TV, & film since 1985 as an outspoken entertainer originally performing with the likes of music producer Dallas Austin , acting in projects including Paris Hilton, Paul Rudd, Bernie Mack, Robert Englund, & so many others. As a well rounded entertainer in all the arts I can assure any skeptics I'm not a "fake" Elvis, but a polished realistic portrayal of Elvis himself widely appreciated by those closest to Elvis, countless celebrities, & fans worldwide. The other Michael Jordan's ex-girlfriend even loved meeting me in Vegas as well! So, here's to keeping it real, & keeping our name noteworthy in parallel universes. Thank you very much, Michael Jordan
Well stated Michael..
