    The non-round number does make me think they have some confidence in it.

    Yeah, I'd guess that was expected to do much more damage.

    Changing one's Facebook profile picture is the new yellow ribbon. I look forward to hearing Miley Cyrus songs with inspirational sound bites inserted into the bridges.

    Imagine how much worse it would have been if the 3 outside the stadium got inside.........

    I've seen several warnings on Twitter that we not read too much into the Syrian passport found on one of the terrorists.

    Fake Syrian passports are a dime a dozen apparently.

    Oh. That makes me feel so much better, given the global refuge crisis.

    Generations of soccer hooliganism have made such stadiums about the most policed places in the world.
    PS: YF, the only attacker identified so far by authorities was said to be a French national, known to the police which is likely how they were able to ID him.

    Do we know what happened outside the stadium?

    Were they stopped from getting in, and detonated suicide vests?

    Noticed lots of Facebook tributes and imagined you throwing a shoe at your computer. Was a nice chuckle.

    I've not heard anything for sure......the scenario you described seems to be the most likely.
