Hello, my fellow theatre aficionados! Seeing as how the Broadway Lottery is becoming more popular, I've decided to make a part two to my article: "Tips to Win the Online Broadway Lottery." Hopefully, with these little bits of advice, you'll be able to score those cheap tickets!

1. Check the seating availability


In most cases, lottery winner seats are subject to availability. So, if you want to see how good your chances are for a particular show, you can go on Ticketmaster and check the seats that are available for the date you want to go. If there's a lot of seats, there's going to be a lot of winners, and you might be one of them!

2. Apply for one ticket

Many people feel like live theatre is an experience that they have to share with their family and friends. For this reason, it's very difficult for theaters to sell single seats. So if you're someone who doesn't mind seeing a show by yourself, you have a better chance of winning the lottery this way.



3. Enter when the weather is bad


For obvious reasons, entries are low when the weather is bad. If you don't mind enduring somesnow or rain to watch a show, this is an ideal time to enter.

4. See it before the Tony's

Shows really start to gain traction after they win at the Tony's. So if there's something that you really want to see, you should enter before then, so you can avoid lots of competition for the lotteries.



5. Know that you have other options

If you find yourself having constant bad luck with the lottery (Which, let's face it, is all of us), remember that there's other ways to get discounted tickets. Many shows offer rush tickets (buying them at the box office on the day of the performance) and standing room tickets when the show is sold out.Playbill keeps a regularly updated list of these policies.


These may be less convenient, but the magic of Broadway is always worth it. Break a leg, everyone!

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
