For first time in years, a Las Vegas Strip hotel to be imploded
Briefly

"The Trop opened in April 1957 and has a long history of mob connections. Once known as the 'Tiffany of the Strip,' the hotel fell into disrepair in recent years as its ownership group, Bally's Corp., decided its real estate was more valuable than the casino."
"Pending approvals, Bally's Corporation and the Oakland A's are set to host a commemorative event on the morning of October 9, featuring a spectacular drone and fireworks display."
"The last casino to meet an explosive end on the Strip was the Riviera, which was imploded after a celebratory fireworks display in 2016. Another recent demolition occurred at the New Frontier in November 2007."
