The counts are ours; everything said about the event itself is quoted and credited to the post or outlet it comes from. Claims in Reddit posts are unverified unless an outlet confirms them. Upvote and comment counts come from Reddit's public data via the Arctic Shift archive and can lag. Spotted a mistake? Tell us. Not affiliated with Reddit.
