- Elvis has won a dozen major competitions, including two Olympic silver medals, three World championships, and seven Canadian figure skating championships.
- In 2010, Elvis wed Mexican figure skater Gladys Orozco.
- In addition to being a figure skating icon, Elvis has appeared in several movies and television shows, including appearances on the Royal Canadian Air Farce, a couple of stints as a sports commentator, including for CTV/TSN at the 2003 World Figure Skating Championships, and as a stand-in for actor Robin Williams in Danny DeVito’s Death to Smoochy.
- Stojko’s father is a classically trained tenor, and in fact Stojko indulged his own musical talents as a singer by releasing his first CD, 100 Lifetimes, in 2009. Much of Elvis’ music is featured in a new figure skating show called Rock the Ice.
- Elvis was presented with two related, prestigious awards by the Governor General (on behalf of the Queen): the Meritorious Service Cross (MSC), and Meritorious Service Medal (MSM).
- Part of the reason Stojko’s act is so athletic and exciting is due to his martial arts career. He obtained a black belt in Karate when he was only 16 years old, and later, took up the Hung Gar style of Kung Fu (he was later to win a silver medal at the 2005 World Championships).
- There was a long-rumoured bar fight—later denied by Elvis—that pit hockey player Eric Lindros against him, and that was apparently hands-down won by Stojko.
- Canadian figure skating champion Patrick Chan, who has won back-to-back world titles himself, had earned some of Stojko’s scorn in the early 2000’s. This all changed in the 2012/13 season, as he sought and earned Elvis’ help to reignite recent sagging performances.
- Elvis was inducted to the Canadian Olympic Hall of fame, alongside other Canadian athletes, in 2011.
- The Elvis Stojko Arena is located in Richmond Hill, Ontario.
- In a July, 2012 interview with the Fan 590, a Toronto-based sports radio station, Elvis announced his intention to follow in the footsteps of great Canadian racer drivers like Paul Tracy and Jacques Villeneuve. He’s already looking at a season of shifter-kart racing, but has much more potent and serious ambitions in the future.
