Just wondering, do the numbers that each speller wear have any significance? Or were they just random?

I think they're completely random. I'm angry that I forget which number I was. Good memory, down the drain.

Same! I can't remember my number either! I remembered everything else from the show except that. I guess it is becuase we never really look at it - everyone else does. Oh well...

The only one that actually factors into a lyric is Marcy's.

Logainne being #1 might have some significance with her being raised as a "perfect" leader.

And maybe William Barfee being #13 factors into his whole personality, but I'm just reaching here.

The number the audience of wearing helps the actors know where the audience spellers sit.

The audience numbers are 2, 3, 4, and 28. (I think)

The cast know where on the bleachers to put the volunteers based on their number.

What Liotte said.

#4 sits between Leaf and Chip
#3 and.... #28? sit beside Marcy.
#2 sits in the front row with Logainne.

Liotte and qwerty are right, I think. I sat between Leaf and Chip (best seat you can get, I swear... I was so stoked), and I think I was #4. I know I was one digit, at least, if that helps to validate the claim.
