    I'll miss the Tropicana, if it doesn't come back!
    I stayed at Tropicana on at least 3 Vegas trips. It is the very best place to watch the JANET flights t0 Area 51 boarding and deplaning. The tower closest to the airport, and obviously the side of it facing the airport (even numbers), floors 14-17 are best. The way I remembered it is to aim for a room number like1776. Floor 18 and above I never tried, because it looks like gold mirrored windows in suites, and probably none of the windows open. 17 and below, they open only a crack before hitting an anti-jumper stop, but many of those have been removed by plane watchers. One I removed and replaced when done, the other two times/rooms, they were already gone!
    It will be interesting to see whether anywhere in the stadium complex will give a better view of the JANET terminal.
    Luxor pyramid rooms overlooking the Sphinx have a good view, but the slanted glass that doesn't open isn't ideal. Mandalay Bay has some decent views, too, though you might be suspected of being a sicko wanting the shooter's view if you ask for that particular view now. But the Trop is the king of viewing spots for those white planes with the red stripe, short of being on a helicopter tour that leaves nearby.
    In a way, it's just watching people go to work. In another way, it's watching people with the strangest and most secretive commute in the world, going to the most isolated/secure work location in the world.
    A final bit of advice if you're going to observe the JANET terminal. Don't open your Trop window for a view of the planes, if you are afraid of being put on a watchlist by the feds or the military or defense-contractor security forces. It's super easy to tell what windows are open, from their portable watch tower, and I've never seen any window other than mine open more than a crack. They sometimes follow me around when I'm in that part of Vegas. Opening my Trop window was one of the 4 possible reasons (2 in Vegas, 2 up near Area 51) that got me onto their list for that treatment. Being followed was intimidating at first, but if you do nothing illegal, they don't actually bother you. If I wave, they don't wave back. If I nod to acknowledge them, some guys will very subtly nod back, some won't. Some seem annoyed to have been sent on the mission, some seem to take it in stride or even enjoy the break from what must usually be a monotonous job of hanging out in a private terminal parking lot for a living.

Cmon the A's STINK and will always stink as long as the current owner is in power. vegas is in such a hurry to be something its not which is the sports capitol of the world they were willing to take the worst possible team in all of sports the A's. Vegas is and will always be a place to gamble. Good luck filling that stadium sun -thurs when someone other than the Yankees or Boston is in town. This isnt like the Raiders coming here .
