"Don't pull on 'em, cuz they're real," says Eric Bressi, an Elvis-impersonating "DJ and crowd motivator" from Kiamesha Lake, N.Y., of his sideburns. Motivated by a less-than-supportive father who told him early on that he'd never amount to anything, Bressi suited up soon after seeing the King of Rock 'n' Roll in concert as a child.

Bressi, who nicknamed himself "Elvis's lost brother" now spends most of his time entertaining senior citizens and those doing fundraising walks.
