WATCH: Grand implosion of Tropicana Las Vegas clears way for A's stadium

LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - OCTOBER 09: A 555-drone and fireworks display by Fireworks by Grucci precedes the implosion of the 23-story Paradise (L) and Club hotel towers of the Tropicana Las Vegas on October 09, 2024 in Las Vegas, Nevada. The hotel-casino opened in 1957 and closed permanently in April 2024 to make way for a planned USD 1.5 billion, 33,000-seat domed stadium for Major League Baseball's Oakland Athletics and a related resort development by Bally's Corp. and Gaming and Leisure Properties Inc. MLB owners approved the team's relocation to Nevada in November 2023, and the A's hope to move into the ballpark, which will occupy nine acres of the 35-acre site, in 2028.
