Windy City ThunderBolts' Popular Elvis Night Returns Saturday

CRESTWOOD, IL -- It was 41 years ago this week when Elvis Presley permanently “left the building.” In honor of the king, the Windy City ThunderBolts’ most popular theme night -- Elvis Night -- returns this Saturday, Aug. 18. The evening features a pregame Elvis concert and fireworks after the game.

Gates open at 4 p.m. at Standard Bank Stadium in Crestwood. At 4:30 p.m., tribute artist John Elvis Lyons gets fans all shook up with a 70-minute concert. After the pregame show, the T-bolts take the field at 6:05 p.m. against the Washington Wild Things. Elvis music will be on tap all during the game and Lyons will be roaming the stands in his Vegas jumpsuit greeting fans and posing for selfies. Stick around after the game for the Windy City Thunderbolts’ world famous fireworks. As always, kids get to run the bases after the game.
