When to arrive

Arrive by 8:30 AM and you have about a 100% chance of scoring rush tickets.

8:30 AM is 90+ minutes before the box office opens (10 AM most days, noon on Sundays). That number comes from 4 recent reports from people in this line; the odds could be as low as 55%. Reports are still thin here, so treat it as a best guess and lean earlier.
