Las Vegas Sets Date to Blow Up Tropicana Hotel So the Oakland A's Can Build Their Ballpark There
Briefly

The Tropicana Las Vegas resort and casino is scheduled for implosion on October 9, 2023, as part of a plan to build a stadium for the Oakland A's.
The Las Vegas Review-Journal details that the Tropicana's destruction will be a celebration, featuring a drone and fireworks show amidst the implosion.
The A's are facing challenges in securing $350 million in taxpayer funding for their stadium, which is dependent on them raising their own $850 million.
The Tropicana, a historical venue frequented by the Rat Pack, has been closed since April 2023 and is set to be demolished due to disrepair.
