Elvis Cape tossed to crowd

Brooks and Dunn caused a stir recently at the Las Vegas Hilton, while they were announcing their plan to perform there several weeks over the next two years. A hotel exec showed Kix Brooks a bejeweled cape worn onstage by Elvis Presley and Brooks dropped it onto his partner's shoulders.

But Ronnie Dunn didn't know what it was, so he tossed it into the crowd. That was when the execs who knew what it was went crazy and dashed into the crowd to retrieve the precious historical garment.

Dunn says, "It was heavy and it smelled like mothballs."
