I'm so glad someone thought to record this. I was so sad to hear about the Sands' demise. I go to AC every year, and I have to admit I hadn't stopped at Sands in awhile. But it used to be one I visited all the time. Now I wished I had visited one last time before it closed. I took several photos of it a few weeks after closing, and I visited again last month to take more. So sad to see them demolishing it. I really miss it now! Thank you for sharing this.
Originally the casino floor had two bars, the Rangoon (big slow rotating fanblades) and the Prince Edward, on opposites sides. Eventually, they were removed and more slots were put in.

I remember reading the "moving walkway" off the boardwalk as a kid. AC just isn't the same without The Sands anymore.
What a beautiful hotel, a shame they demolished it. 26 years gone.
The Room he is standing in is now down to the steel! lol
Epic Buffet

I was there in January 2006 and they were renovated the hotel rooms!

It closed November, 2006! Very sad! It was a marvelous place!!
It was only 26 years old. Was it THAT obsolete already that it needed to be destroyed???
I LOVED IT BUT HEY WHAT DO I KNOW? LOL 😂
Epic Buffet was the best.
Wow! What beautiful interriors. Those Floors! I wonder if hey repurposed / recycled them?
What a waste of materials blown to smithereens 😣
The hotel was always too small...always liked the food court.
The end of the good old days
$3 billion casino will be built and open by 2011 to replace the sands
