Has anyone tried the BOM lottery? How busy is it on a weekend, versus how busy on a weekday?

i tried it on a weekday and there was about 50 people there, it is probably more busy on the weekend. so you would have more of a chance on a weekday. Good Luck!
I tried it twice during the opening week and got the last ticket on my second try. There were about 40-50 people there. The seat locations vary. I got the last row of the orchestra--a chair, not a theatre seat, next to the sound board.
Here are pictures I took of the lottery crowd:
