The "KING"

Some people grew up playing with LEGO, others grew up rocking to the "King."

Put the two together, and you get....a fusion of everlasting fun that never leaves the building.

To commemorate the 34th anniversary of Elvis passing, I went to Viva Las Vegas, memorialized the "King" the only way I know how, and did a quick comparison of the two legends.

Here's how they stacked up:

Elvis-Most popular singer of our time

LEGO-Most popular toy of our time

Elvis-A cultural icon

LEGO-A cultural phenomenom

Elvis-Born in 1935

LEGO-Company named in 1934 (so close)

Elvis-The top selling solo artist in the history of popular music

LEGO-One of the top selling toys of all time

Elvis-Regarded as one of the most important figures in 2oth century pop culture

LEGO-One of the most highly regarded companies in the world

Elvis-Sex symbol that attracted thrones of woman

LEGO-okay, never mind
