Lotteries aren't cancelled because of snow. Usually they are more crowded than normal, because everything thinks that no one else will come out to try due to the weather.

I can't come up with a reason for why it would be cancelled
Might the person who started the rumor be very diabolical and be planning to try for the lottery tonight--and use this rumor as an attempt to keep others away???-----Just a thought...

Bigrab1018 I didn't think that you started the rumor nor was I implying it--I thought you had heard it and was asking others
if they too had any information.

I can't imagine they'd cancel the lottery if they're not canceling the show. What sense does that make?

Cabin fever can do that to you!!!
I really meant no offense---
I really am wondering though how one could find out since there is no direct number to the theater--
I would think that they would welcome the lottery tonight.

Har dee har har. It will be beautiful walking around the streets of manhatten tomorrow with just enough snow on the ground, no matter how warm California may be.

And I'm trying the lottery tomorrow too! There was one tonight.

Ya I like snow, I have only been to NYC once (last new years) and it snowed and it was magical. But if I lived in NYC I would be broke because I would see a show like every night.

Hehe I can afford only one show a week. But, there are always ways of making budgets for theatre patronage.

Only ONE show a week? *sigh* I'm jealous!

Without a student ID it's once a month for me. Stupid wedding budget. Ha.

Yes there was, and it was quite crowded! I did not win (see, I don't ALWAYS win lottos), but got standing room.

Won the lotto tonight (had to buy 1 other ticket, oh well), and one of my kids (age 10) was a speller. She was so excited! Anyone see the show tonight? (Sat night)

Her name is Maddison, and for one of her description sentences, she got "Maddison has 3 other sisters named Lex, Park, and 5th Avenue." Very cute.
