Elvis Left The Building And Was Reincarnated As A Member Of A Boy Band
'Marcy? I have a question. When you were thinking of all the names you could call your business, what made you decide on this one?'
'What's wrong with 'Backalleycas'? Sounds Irish. Intriguing. Everyone loves an Irishman.'
'You're not Irish. Or a man for that matter.'
'It's got an air of suspense about it. Like... you know, come down the back alley you never know what you might win.'
'Or catch.'
'Huh?'
'You never thought about the double entendres, the Freudian connotations, the nudge, nudge wink winks?'
'Say no more.'
'Exactly.'
'No I mean shut up, he's here.'
'Who's here?'
'Robbie Williams. He's come to open the casino.'
'You've got Robbie Williams? How the hell did a PA from Briny Breezes, Florida, manage to secure Robbie Williams to open an insignificant, run-down back street casino in Reno?'
'Well, it's not the Robbie, just a very close comparison. This guy's won awards.'
'Where?'
'Louisiana State Penitentiary Cosplayer Convention.'
'You mean detention? That's a prison.'
'Not his fault. He was framed. He said it was actually Robbie Williams that stole those smokes and liquor. He can't help that he looks like the guy, can he?'
'Right.'
'Besides, I thought in my best Abba-esque lightbulb moment why not take a chance. It's fitting, you see, 'take a chance on me', casino, rolling dice. Get it?'
'Sure.'
'Don't you just love Abba?'
'More than life itself.'
'Don't laugh when you see Robbie #2 though.'
'Why not?'
'He said he's portraying a 'Robbie as Elvis' persona. Isn't that cool? Apparently Robbie Williams saves it only for his true fans. Kept it secret for years. Who knew?'
'So you've hired an ex-con Elvis impersonator to impersonate Robbie Williams as Elvis?'
