Letter: DO Las Vegas skyline a favor, implode Stratosphere Tower

Saturday, Feb. 22, 1997 | 11:59 a.m.

I want to see this place blown up. The Hacienda was a dump, we blew it up.

The stock holders could even get some of millions they lost back by selling the rights to the implosion to Don King.

He would put the implosion on pay-per-view charging lets say $20 bucks, and I'm sure that at least 10 million people would pay to see this place destroyed especially if Bob Stupak was in it at the time.

It's bad enough the stockholders lost everything, but now they want us to pay $1.31 a share for their new stock that won't be worth a buffalo nickel a year from now. The bankruptcy laws in this country need to be drastically changed. That the Stratosphere can continue operating and spending money on bad advertising campaigns while stockholders lose everything is a travesty of justice, and "that's certified".
