Caesars Atlantic City is offering rooms with a prime view of the planned demolition of Trump Plaza Hotel & Casino at 9 a.m. on Feb. 17. For $299, the package includes champagne and a late checkout on the day of the implosion of the casino once owned by the former president.

ATLANTIC CITY - Myron Lively strolled past the shuttered Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino reliving a bit of his past.
In the early days of the city s casino industry, Lively was a waiter and his fiancée was a blackjack dealer at the Plaza.
Today, she s a city school teacher and he is barber at a shop just a short jaunt down the Boardwalk from the former Trump Plaza, which closed in 2014.
On Feb. 17, the tallest Plaza tower will become a memory, too. The planned implosion of the once-iconic tower at the center of the Boardwalk will mark the end of the Trump era in this shore town.
However, the charity auction fell well short of Mayor Marty Small s ambitious goal of raising at least $1 million for the local Boys & Girls Club chapter.
The 10 highest auction bidders earned a dinner for two in Atlantic City, an overnight stay at either the Hard Rock or Ocean Casino Resort, and tickets to view the implosion of the former Trump Plaza building from an event space along the boardwalk.
Wednesday s charity auction was the city s second attempt to raise money for the Boys & Girls Club in conjunction with the demolition of the former Trump Plaza building.
An auction that would have awarded someone the opportunity to press the detonation button was called off last month due to a legal dispute. The building s property owner, Icahn Enterprises, declined to facilitate the auction due to safety concerns and issued a cease and desist order.

Trump Considering Floating Patriot Party
This just may be the catharsis in disguise which we all are waiting at this point of time. Following the last few weeks of his chaotic presidency, characterized by lies of election fraud, a second impeachment and a riot at the Capitol, the removal of Trump s highest skyscrapers, which he also named as the eighth wonder of the world , from the skyline of Atlantic City in New Jersey is symbolic of his departure with a little bang especially now that he s finally out of office.
Other than groping the attention of the people, The Falling has promoted a once in a lifetime experience to the bidders to compete for a front-row seat to watch the demolition of the vacant plaza that once featured the former president s name in glowing red letters, shining bright in the night sky of the coastal skyline of the resort city.
