In its heyday, the Tropicana Las Vegas was known for its opulence. It was a frequent haunt of the Rat Pack and host to A-list stars like Elizabeth Taylor and Debbie Reynolds, while its storied past under the mob cemented its place in Vegas lore. But after welcoming guests for 67 years, the Las Vegas Strip’s third-oldest casino will shut its doors for good at noon Tuesday. It s slated for demolition in October to make room for a $1.5 billion baseball stadium — part of the city’s latest rebrand as a hub for sports entertainment.
