Yikes that's what I am afraid of. I went in November 2011 to get tickets for March 2012 and all the moderately priced seats were sold out already and all they had left were obstructed view seats for $180.
I might be in New York again come August 2011 and wanted to take a shot at seeing the show again but wasn't entirely sure when was the latest I could wait on purchasing tickets for it.
I wish they sold BOM tickets via TicketMaster though cause I really like using that interactive map view that the site has so I can get a better picture of which seats are still available, etc.

BUMP: There is going to be a story about the lotto on Rock Center tonight.
Great, now the crowds will be even more unbearable!

Posted: 6/5/12 at 9:02pmSorry to bump an old thread, but I am going to try to wait for SRO tickets for BOM this weekend (Andrew's last weekend). I have SRO'd the show before, but only on Tuesdays. What is it like for a Saturday, and how early should i come to guarantee tickets for the evening show (not the matinee)? Thanks.

Posted: 6/5/12 at 10:21pmI went the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend, got there for SRO at 4:30. were the second to last group in line to get tickets and 3 groups in front of us won lottery. (which had at least 500 ppl). And it was raining that weekend. So to be safe, i'd say no later than 2.

Posted: 6/6/12 at 12:26amJust fyi, I did SRO yesterday (Tuesday), we got there 12:20 and got tix #6-11. The line was full before 1pm. Not sure if it was because it is nearly summer or Gad's 2nd to last day. Of the SRO people i spoke to, nobody was there specifically for Gad, but some came early (like us) because of it. Others didnt even know about it until we told them.

Posted: 6/28/12 at 7:22pmMy husband & I did SRO yesterday, Wed. 6/27 - we got there around 1:30 for the 7pm show - we were 1st in line - another couple came right after us & then more came about an hour later. Only 1 person from the SRO line won the lottery - most of the winners selected yesterday were from out of state or out of country - there was a winner from Luxembourg which was a first they said.

Posted: 7/15/12 at 8:36pmIs 9 still true for the matinees now that summer is in full swing? My friend and I are going to be in the city next weekend and if SRO is an option we might see BOM.

Posted: 7/29/12 at 9:12pmBumping to ask if anyone's tried standing room for one of the new Friday matinees. Anyone have any advice of a time to line up?

Posted: 7/29/12 at 9:15pmWas there the first week in July. I got there at 9, and was about 9 or 10 in line. (Hard to say exactly, as not everyone in front of us was getting tix. 2 people only getting 2, not 4 tix.)

Never any guarantees, but most likely.
View is great.

Posted: 8/11/12 at 11:36pmgstrus2, yes, you'll probably be fine. And I agree on the view. I've sat in the rear orchestra and could see much less than I could from standing room.
