So, you're planning a trip to Vegas, baby! Bright lights, clinking coins, all that jazz. But hold on to your steakhouses for a sec, because a question might be nagging at your brain like a particularly insistent Elvis impersonator. Just how many people got swept up in that crazy 2017 shooting?

The Not-So-Fun Facts:
- A gunman, definitely not on the casino's "most-wanted high rollers" list, decided to rain bullets down on a country music festival from his fancy hotel room. Rude, much?
- In total, 60 people tragically lost their lives. That's a number that would make even Wayne Newton shed a tear (or two).
- Now, some folks might say "60? That's it?" Well, hold your horses. Another 867 people were injured, which is basically like having a really bad case of the polka after a night on the slots.
But hey, let's not dwell on the downers! Vegas is all about bouncing back, right?
Tip: Read once for flow, once for detail.
Important Side Note: The motive for this whole mess is still a bit of a mystery, like a magician who forgot how his own trick worked. But that's a story for another time, perhaps over a delicious, non-bullet-riddled cocktail.
