(no relation) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/vitalvegas\/tropicana-sold-to-ballys-corp-for-deal-worth-308-million\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">bought Tropicana<\/a>, but that never happened. Could a looming sale of Bally&rsquo;s be the reason for the delay?<\/p>\n<p>We&rsquo;re very excited about the prospect of Grand Bazaar Shops making a date with destiny in the form of a bulldozer, as this eyesore is arguably the worst waste of prime real estate in the history of Las Vegas.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_28796\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-28796\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-28796 size-full\" style=\"border: 1px solid #000000;\" src=\"\/vitalvegas\/dist\/images\/common\/transparent_3x2.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/vitalvegas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/grand_bazaar_shops_sign.jpg\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-28796\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Starbucks, out.
