58 crosses at the Las Vegas welcome sign

There are 58 crosses at the iconic Welcome to Las Vegas sign. The crosses honor the victims of the mass shooting Oct. 1. A retired carpenter from Chicago, Greg Zanis, brought the crosses to the Strip. Zanis has erected more than 20,000 crosses over the past two decades, including after Columbine, Sandy Hook, and the Orlando nightclub shooting. The tribute is expected to remain for 40 days before being given to families of the victims.
