Was it? I assumed otherwise since it was a benefit.

I won the tickets to the last Broadway matinee of "Avenue Q" last September.

I don't think it was ever announced to anyone but me...they're very scattershot on which winners they make public.

I didn't even know it was a benefit. He does so many of them they are all one to me. I enjoy him. He reminds me of Rudy Del Amor.

I won a pair of tickets to see Wintuk this past fall from a Broadwayworld contest. I don't remember if I was notified via a PM or via email but they didn't make the winners of that contest public.

I just (as in I just got off the phone) won two tickets to THE FANTASTICKS 50th Anniversary performance. Though it's not technically a BWW contest.

I seem to recall two or three years back the poster Defying Gravity GIrl (DGG) won tickets to a Broadway show (can't remember which one, though). It was mentioned in the Avatar thread and we all congratulated her.

Tip of the day: Always have a spare email address (I use the old hotmail account I had in college) to register for contests and such to keep your work and personal accounts spam-lite.

Talking about contests -- I'd like to ask about the Tony toney watches that were awarded at last year's Tony Awards Show in Radio City. Some guy got up on stage twice at break times to conduct random drawings for Audemars Piguet watches, luxury timepieces. Each time he opened an attache case, which had tickets or stubs visible in several levels of rows, looked in, and took one ticket out. A seat number was announced (both times in the better-seats sections).

I wrote to the company asking for the names of the winners, but received no reply.

Did anyone here on BWW win one of those drawings?


p.s. Does anyone believe or know whether those were actual random drawings, or were the winners predetermined?
