I think Las Vegas will look back and regret tearing down all the iconic locations that made the strip... only one of the icons left is Circus Circus....

The casino Royale opened in 1992, all the rest all new. But you have downtown. Some of the old ones are still standing.

The good old days, gone but not forgotten. Now they cater to the kids who think nothing of paying $20 for a beer while they're out clubbing. Far cry from the $3.95 prime rib and free drinks while you gamble at the bars.

Being from the UK ..I just HOPE AND PRAY thst they find someway of preserving that massive stained glass art deco arch that is there ( even though its 50s , 60s built) THAT is one of the outstanding features of the Tropicana and not seen anymore in vegas arcutechure .....its a survior of the past when most of the other vegas casinos ( apart from thier neon signs) were demolished back in the 90s ..i know vegas likes to improve and build anew and forget the past BUT these days there is a growing nostalgia now for casinos of the past so WHEN they demolish the trop i do hope they save some of the stuff that is historicaly relevant ....not sure if or what (if anything) they saved when they tore down the Riv a few yrs back ! Next on the chopping block will no doubt be circus circus at some point sadly

That's 1 of the original casinos of Vegas the Tropicana, and they want to tear it down and replace it with a baseball stadium for the A's!!! That's BS!!! Go build your baseball stadium somewhere else!! Leave the Tropicana up and going!! The Tropicana is a golden gem!!!

I remember being in a las vegas hotel and this dumb bartender in monkey attire asking for my identification. I was not sitting anywhere near the bar and didn't ask for any drink, but he calls me over. The reason these places are closing is you don't show any respect. Be considerate of people and don't bother people relaxing on a couch not bothering or playing any of the games. I told everyone I knew not to go to that hotel anymore. They also told everyone they knew also. That is how you lose business. screw all these bastards.
