Comparing b'way to a hockey stadium doesn't make sense: Tampa Bay has 20K seats each game.  They can sell MANY fewer seats, and many fewer seats at a discount and still break even/make money.   A bway house averages what? Half of that?

I believe most are listed here: http://broadwayforbrokepeople.com. It's a table format, so a bit easier to read than some sites.

I thought their towards in that particular instance was a bit extreme. Some theaters have a blatant policy for no pictures in the theater of anything at anytime, others not so blatant."

I thought Robert Fairchild was great, I was actually impressed with his acting (maybe because I knew his roots were in dance?). I knew little about the show or his background, just happened to win lottery tickets on my first try. I think it's worth seeing before he's gone.

My mom and I always do Carmine's. It's family style, so the portions are huge, but we just order a "side dish" of eggplant parm and split it. Typically we sit in the bar area and it's never taken more than 5-10 mins to get a seat in there (we've done this 20+ times). 

Just our little Broadway tradition! 

I actually just won a single ticket today! I've been entering for about 6 months 3-4 times a week and finally won for the first time today. Typically if it's for a 7PM show I go in for one ticket, an 8PM show I'll go in for in for two. So either I'm unlucky by never winning with 2 tickets or it's just really hard to win on TodayTix.
