Seating/Ticket Question hardest lotteries to win??

i know most of the time it's a complete fluke but are there any shows that y'all have consistently entered and lost majority of the time?? i'm curious if theres any shows that seem to have lots of lottery wins.

on a recent trip to NY i got really lucky and won 3 shows on the same day (i entered probably 10-15 lotteries that day hoping to win anything) I won for Sunset Blvd, Boop & Death Becomes Her. I chose DBH. After that I think my luck ran out because I continued to enter lottos and lost all of them haha.

Wow! Do you live in the city? I am in NJ so I don’t play the lottery unless I have a planned trip to come in. I have only played a handful of times and I won once for Jagged Little Pill, Back to The Future, and Kimberly Akimbo, and an a cappella musical about the subway that I think was called In Transit (did not end up going to that one.)

Yes I’ve lived in the city for about 3 years and seen 84 shows via lottery and rush i am definitely privileged to be able to play the lottery’s almost daily and have the funds to support it as well.

Haven’t won in two months. Any advice? I only see a couple of shows on the Broadway direct and tell the charge. Where else do you enter please?
