Chilean Miner Invited to Vegas

After spending 69 days trapped deep beneath the Earth’s surface, one of the 33 Chilean miners has received an offer that’s hard to beat—courtesy of Las Vegas. Edison Pena, a die-hard fan of Elvis Presley, has been invited by impersonator Jesse Garon to visit Las Vegas and experience the best of what the city has to offer.

The Vegas entertainer was so struck by the tragedy-turned-miracle that he sent word to Pena about his desire to host the miner in Sin City. Pena and his wife have been invited to stay in Vegas, attend an Elvis show and renew their wedding vows with the King under the famous sign on Las Vegas Boulevard.
