Bidding Officially Opens for Trump Plaza Implosion
Lots of people have built grand hotels and casinos in Atlantic City but few can say they helped to bring one crashing down to earth.
As we previously reported, the former Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino will be imploded at the end of January and for the right amount of money, you could be the person that presses the button that brings it down.
The good news is, it's all being done as a way to raise money for the Boys & Girls Club of Atlantic City.
As of Thursday morning, bidding officially opened. The bidding page says in part,
