Does anyone know if Cats will have a lottery or rush? I received the email about the $99 orchestra and front mezz tickets, but haven't heard anything about a lottery or rush yet.

I was just wondering this as well, since previews start tonight. It looks like they have a lottery for $40 tickets: https://lottery.broadwaydirect.com/show/cats/
Looks like the same system as Hamilton.

Thank you!!! Now my only dilemma will be if I win both Cats and Hamilton today, but I'm sure the chances of that happening are slim to none.

Since both are on the BroadwayDirect system, that won't happen. Their FAQ says that you can enter multiple shows on the same day, but you can only win one. (This applies to lotteries held on their website, obviously.)

A person who was behind me in line had won the lottery and was second row extreme right I believe. Ticket was stamped as partially obstructed. From the looks of it I didnt think the partial view seats looked terrible.

Two of my friends won lottery tickets separately (how serendipitous!) two days ago and were seated in the last and second to last row in the mezz. The one sitting in the last row said that the view isn't bad, but since she is short, she had a hard time seeing past the heads of people in front of her. She ended up moving a few rows up (the theater wasn't very full) during intermission.
The person next to her was even shorter than her and was furious with her seat location. She tried to stand up when the show started but an usher made her sit.

I attended the show with a friend who won the lotto a few weeks ago. We were given great seats, orch V 1-3, which were regular chairs in the back of the orchestra. I believe they were unsold wheelchair locations.

I won the lottery for tonight's show, my seat was in the right rear mezz, row O, last seat. Honestly, it was a pretty great seat. I could see everything and didn't miss anything. Great show!

My sister won last night. Our seats were row n all the way to left. It was still a pretty good seat thoufh. You could see everything including all the dancing in the audience on the right side. Also, it seems they give you an extra few minutes after he 60 minutes to pay. My sister paid at 4:05ish (cut off is at 4:00), but I'm not sure if we just got super lucky that it still went through.
