Tropicana Las Vegas Then & Now - and a Tribute to the Showgirl

Las Vegas Inside & Out visits one of the oldest, most historic properties on the entire Strip, literally days after it moved under new ownership. We are talking about the beloved Tropicana Las Vegas, 65 years young and still kicking on that most famous of corners, Las Vegas Blvd and Tropicana Avenue. We will tour the casino and public areas, the pool and restaurants, entertainment venues...and then, we are going to tell you a tale about the Folies Bergère and the iconic Las Vegas Showgirl! Enjoy this one, folks - it was a labor of love. ** This video was re-uploaded on Sunday evening to correct an error.
