Posted: 6/10/09 at 10:53amI'm sure a million posts have been put up about this, but could anyone give me any advice for the Wicked lottery? I know when it starts and stuff, but how many people are generally there?

Posted: 6/10/09 at 10:55amThe least there is on any given day is about 200-300. That's probably your general Tuesday through Thursday. Weekends? You're looking at maybe 400-500.

Posted: 6/10/09 at 10:55amUsually a lot. I've heard 200-300, but during the week it might be slightly less.

Posted: 6/10/09 at 11:02amIf you win, it's worth it. It's a crapshoot. If you really want to see it, do the lottery. Taking a chance at winning is better than not trying at all.

Posted: 6/10/09 at 12:42pmIt took me over a dozen tries to win, but it was really worth it!

Posted: 6/10/09 at 1:31pmit took me like 4 or 5 tries...definately worth it. You'll win eventually, just maybe not on the first or second try:)

I'm going on a wednesday. Do you think they'll be a ton of people there? and do they still give out those pins if you win?

Yes, they still give out the pins.
It's always a very crowded lottery.

For anyone who bumps up this thread in the future:
Yes, it is still busy.

Posted: 11/3/09 at 11:13pmI lived in the city this summer for an internship, and tried the wicked lotto probably about 10 times when I had nothing else to do. I won on my last night in the city. Great way to end my stay! :)

Posted: 11/4/09 at 1:22ami've won the wicked lottery twice, and i've never gotten a pin.
#18re: Wicked Lottery
Posted: 11/4/09 at 2:13amI live directly across the street from the Gershwin theatre. The front door to my building faces the Gershwin Stage Door. So, I've had many times to try the lottery and I've never won once. I've probably tried it a dozen times when I have a free evening. Maybe one day I'll win...it's always so crowded. And the Wicked lottery guy is SO intense...

That's good you live so close to everything. I have to pay $5 AUD to travel to the city of Sydney to enter the lotto here. It ads up.
