Separating Fact from Fiction (and Counting Those Chips)
Now, before we get into the nitty-gritty, let's clear the air like a high roller clearing out a smoky casino. There's been some misinformation floating around looser than a free buffet on a Tuesday (golden years, anyone?). We're here to set the record straight, with a side of fun facts (because who doesn't love a fun fact?).
Here's the straight-up, no-foolin' number: 60 people tragically lost their lives in that horrific event. That's 60 individuals, each with their own story, dreams, and unfinished games of Blackjack. A terrible loss, and our hearts go out to their families and loved ones.
Tip: Don’t just glance — focus.
But wait, there's more! In the ensuing chaos, over 850 people were injured. That's a whole lot of folks who ended up with a story that wasn't part of their Vegas vacation plans.
So, the final tally (and this isn't a slot machine, folks, it's a somber reminder): 60 lives lost and over 850 people injured.
Reminder: Take a short break if the post feels long.

Tip: Read at your own pace, not too fast.
