Seen this done in previous years and I know how hard it hurts when a great show is won for a date that doesnt work, so decided to start this thread.
So... I guess just post what you got and we can trade and stuff?
2 tix to Height of the Storm on 10/19 at 8pm. Looking to trade if someone wants to!

I am not a winner. I was 0 for 48 with not one winning blue ticket. Congrats to all who got something.
I’d trade Blue Man Group for anything above or other suggestions.

I have Da Vinci and Michelangelo: The Titans Experience that I would trade for almost anything

Semi-related question. I've always been curious...the people who win dozens of pairs of tickets...how much money do they spend? Are they just that lucky.and win 24 times on 24 tries, or do they spend hundreds and hundreds (or thousands?)? I spent $40 for 48 tickets and only won once. I'm not judging - I know it's all for charity. I'm just curious, and when I've politely posed the question to them directly, I've never gotten an answer.

On average, I'd say I won a ticket for every $40 I spent.
Have they gotten rid of Perfect Crime as a prize? Winning that when you're hoping for a Broadway show is a cruel joke, sorta like getting coal in your stocking for Christmas.

Two Fiddler on the Roof tickets good through the October.

Is that the one where the same actress has done every show since like 1987?

Indeed it is!
I’ve never seen it but have a story about it. I had some friends in NYC who went to see it simply because it was the cheapest thing at TKTS. After the show they quipped, “The Perfect Crime was getting us to pay $75 each to see that!”
To speak to the question of numbers -- I donated $100 and got 6 winners this year. In past years, I've gotten 3-4 for the same amount. One of my 6 winners was The Perfect Crime. I had two sets of tickets for Frozen, but was able to exchange one set with someone else in person.

I won a voucher for the current NYTW production of, "runboyrun & In Old Age" (It goes until October 13 and is supposed to be amazing, I am already a NYTW subscriber.) Is anyone interested in the voucher in exchange for other tickets/voucher ? It is good for any performance (you just have to give them 3 dates that work.) I am in the city this week and can meet up to trade.
