So there is probably a thread for this but I can’t find it. Anyway does anyone know how the mean girls rush is? If I were to rush on Saturday in 2 weeks. How crazy would it be? And what time do you think I should get there. Thanks!
Rush is offered everyday now, no longer an in person lottery.

Per someone on the fb group, she was the first person there at 8, and most ppl didn't show up until 9:45/10
I'll be there on the 27th, and i'll probably be there at 7 AM
What is the FB group for Mean Girls? Is it private or can anyone join?
Thank you!

Rushed today Wednesday 11/21/18, arrived a little before 8am, was 13th in line. By 10am the line was much much longer, maybe about 30 people or so. They had the pink rush but nobody checked for it, really. Seems like there were plenty of tickets today because they have both matinee and evening shows. I chose matinee because the everybody else wanted evening and I don't care about watching understudies anyway. Got orch A5 for $32.50, it says partial view but I'm hoping the parts that are blocked off are minimal!! :)

Any updates on both weekday / weekend arrival times as well as seat locations given to those at the front of the line?

My friend and I rushed Mean Girls on Black Friday. We were first in line @ 7:45 am. We received front row left orchestra tickets for matinee. We were on aisle. Great seats! By 10:00am probably 30 people in line.

Arrived at 8am and I was second in line this morning.
By 10am there was 15/20 people in line.
Me and my friend both got 2 front row seats. They’re marked ‘partial view’ but I can’t see them being problematic.

Which exact row/seat numbers were you given?

Does anyone have first-hand knowledge that the box office IS doing rush during this holiday week?
Any line arrival info and/or ticket location from yesterday / today?
Same question as "chuckydisc", anyone know if they are doing rush during the holidays? Potentially trying to go Sunday!
Has anyone had luck winning the digital lottery? Where are the seats usually located for that? I keep seeing front row sides for in person rush, so just wondering. Thanks!!!
I had 2 unsuccessful attempts this week. Tried Wed morning: got there @ 8:15am and was roughly 25th in line. I was surprised based on earlier reports but I guess folks are still on holiday and Wed is more popular, being $10 cheaper? I left and was able to get a standing room ticket to Mockingbird.
Tried again on Thurs: got there @ 7:15am and was roughly 9th in line. The next person joined at 8:30am which is why I believe Wed is just a different ballgame. Long story long, I ended up not getting tickets (apparently a single person in line is a spot saver for all your friends and family to join @ 9:45am- the person in front of me had 2 friends join much later and they got 6 tickets. Infuriating.) According to ticketmaster the show was practically sold out so based on the number of people in front of me, I believe they reserve the 5 seats in the front row on both side sections and if the show is sold out, 8 standing room tickets.
Sorry for the novel/rant. I just thought this was helpful information... and will hopefully keep someone else from wasting as much time as I have at the August Wilson this week lol

There is NO spot-saving on rush lines. You all in line at the correct time tell the "joiners" to go to the back of the line!

You're totally right... I've raised hell before but chose to let it go yesterday, I knew I wasn't getting one of those front row seats so didn't feel like being the line police for standing room tickets I didn't really want.
Went today 1/9 (wed), there's about 10 people by 7am.
By 9am there's about 40 people on line.
My seats are front row extreme sides, fingers crossed I won't miss much!
