Still no reason given for closure but some interesting stuff about collection and possible future. Since this exhibit is closed, your reason for going to the Tropicana would be ... the lousy resturant, surly dealers, the one-armed-one-man-band Thai guy doing Parrot-head music out at the Island Lounge or the hookers looking for dates by the buffet?

Yes, I think the Trop implosion would be one convention field trip I'd sign up for!
