Hotel Most Deserving of Being Imploded

BENNY LE GRAND

     Ask Benny Le Grand, the tuxedo-clad anarchist clown in Cirque de Soleil's "Mystere" show at Treasure Island, which hotel should go down in a pile of rubble and you'll get a typically Benny Le Grand answer: "Start with the Stratosphere, so that when it falls we can clean out all the other ones." Benny, whose comic antics include stealing popcorn from unsuspecting audience members and tearing up their show tickets, thinks Las Vegas should be restored to "its original small-town, low-impact feel. I say we implode them all and put up one of those Mobil gas stations with a couple of glass pumps out front, a restaurant next door and an outhouse out back."
