The seconds ticked away early Wednesday morning until the husk of the Tropicana Las Vegas resort, deserted since its April 2024 closing date, met a final and spectacular end, bringing to a close the era of the 67-year-old structure once a bastion for visitors from across the country.
The Las Vegas classic came down in style with a seven-minute celebration involving 550 drones and 150 “pyrodrones” counting down to the controlled demolition of the resort originally erected in 1957.
