I guess I missed that. Hm....I thought I went back and checked. If I did, I guess I didn't do so carefully.

She mentions it in her last paragraph. When I went back to check myself that I hadn’t fabricated that in my mind, I had trouble finding it again, too!

Not to go entirely too off topic but does anyone know how this rush compares to the chaos that was the Darren Criss How to Succeed line?

I just feel like in the dead of winter when his run was happening a line monitor would have been really helpful. Thankfully I had checked around before I went so I could be sure to get tickets but there were tons of people in line behind me who had no chance but still waited in 10 degree for hours.

I have always found that If I need to leave the line for a potty break or whatever, I tell not only the people next to me on line but also the monitor if he/she is there also. That way it is less likely to have a problem when I return.

Also, to the person who asked, it seems like they are very stringent at Matilda about the 30 day rule policy for those who already won the lottery. The day I was there recently (and lost), after they picked the winners, they said if we others wanted to, we could wait a few more minutes as they would check the ID's of the winners and also check the list...which I assumed was the 30 day list. They would pull more names if any of the winners were eliminated..which they said DOES happen. It did not the day I was there.

I just got an image in my head of those in queue saying to the line monitor, in Cool Hand Luke fashion, "Goin' potty, boss!" and a rifle-toting man in mirrored sunglasses silently nods his approval.

Looks like the switch to lottery is officially happening:

That's good news. Another out of control rush, Next to Normal, did the same.

Oh, wow. We can't even reference her without the post getting deleted. I wonder which of the mods she is.

Clyde, I have better things to do. Thanks for the offer though.

That wasn't an invitation. I know that's reserved for Big Poppa anyway.

Just wanted to make sure you knew you were wrong about them never switching from rush to a lottery.

I never said they wouldn't I just wondered why they would. Also it is a good thing. Their line was ripe with scalpers. now it is fair. So get over yourself please. I thought you could go a whole week with out using those silly gifs to get your point across in a reasonable adult way. I guess I was wrong again. have a great night.

I don't know why you were given that impression.
