How many restaurants have to remove dead people? That would REALLY be bad for business.
Having worked at the Luxor for the last 18 years, we have only done it three times since the property opened on October 15, 1993. All three times were due to massive heart attacks. All three involved 60+ years old males who had a previous episode but survived it. Only one was obese while the other two were of medium build. One was during breakfast and the other two during dinner. All were here for pleasure, not business. We have 4417 rooms and suites, will have about 10,000 guest staying for the upcoming Labor Day holiday and we average on average 94% occupancy year round. We get a lot of people in other words so I consider the amount to be statistically insignificant. This, of course, is not insignificant to the families involved. We deal with such huge numbers that even though it seems a significant number of guests get in trouble, the reality is that percentage wise it is not even one tenth of one percent. As I tell my trainees, Las Vegas gets about 40 million visitors a year. If only one percent cause trouble, either due to health, illicit substances, alcohol, crime, etc, etc, that means 400,000 a year are here or more than a thousand a day. The Luxor will get its share everyday.
