WATCH: Iconic Vegas Hotel Gets Demolished in Massive Implosion Against Glitzy Backdrop of Fireworks

Las Vegas bid farewell to the iconic Tropicana Casino Wednesday morning as the building’s demolition, marked by a fireworks show and music from Frank Sinatra, brought an end to the legendary resort’s nearly seven-decade run on the Strip.

The implosion of the Tropicana’s Paradise Tower and Club Tower was the first casino demolition in Las Vegas in almost a decade.

Opened in 1957 and dubbed the “Tiffany of the Strip”, the Tropicana’s legacy is etched in Las Vegas history. It was famous for its showgirl revue, mob connections as well as hosting music legends like Louis Armstrong and the Rat Pack.

After the resort was honored with its send-off display, at 2.30am (PT) the casino fell in just 22 seconds, as over 2,000 pounds of explosives brought it down.

The area where the Tropicana’s stood will soon be home to a $1.5 billion, 33,000-seat baseball stadium for the relocating Oakland Athletics, slated to open for the 2028 MLB season.
