I love going to the theater. In fact, one of my favorite nights of recent memory was the night my daughter and I went to see A Christmas Carol at the Denver Center. I have seen several shows through the years and wear it as a badge of pride. Yes, I was one of those people who TRIED to get a Hamilton ticket on Monday. I logged in at 9 a.m. for the virtual waiting room. I thought it was a long shot when I was delivered up a waiting line number of 62,668. But I waited, and waited, and waited. Two hours later I took a peek at my phone and I had somehow jumped to 192,356 place in line? What the heck. I guess I will have to either try to get a $10 ticket one of the nights of the show or…just go see some of the other AMAZING shows at the Denver Center.
