No, but we had a bar in Houston called the Velvet Elvis that was closed down a few years ago for violating the publicity rights of "the King." It changed its name to the Velvet E.

Oh, they didn't close down -- and, yes, they had dogs playing poker as I recall. As coincidence may have it, I drove past it today, and it's now called the Velvet Melvin. I suspect it still has the same artwork and "decor."
