The Frontier in Las Vegas is no more
They have imploded the Frontier hotel in Las Vegas. It was a lovely send off, spectacular fireworks display that lasted for six minutes, I even caught some of that on video. Then it lead up to a fake fuse made up of arcs of fireworks cascading up to the hotel and starting off a countdown on the front of the hotel, I could not see that from my angle, I was looking at the back of the hotel. They had it on the local news, a huge countdown across the front of the hotel and then a specially designed image of a plunger dropping down to detonate the building. It took only seconds for the explosions to start appearing in the hotel, then it collapsed into a plume of dust that billowed high into the air and drifted off between the towers of the Wynn. Circus Circus was in my humble opinion the best place to watch from unless you could get a room in that Trump tower over there – but I think I read that is not yet opened.
They did justice to the Frontier being demolished though, I will give them that. It was a lovely send off for the old hotel. I’ll post video for it as soon as I get back to Alaska where my video editing programs are and I can fix it for upload to YouTube.
