Rush Strategy for Just in Time
Rushing Just in Time is a more forgiving rush than most, though the reported arrivals still cluster in the morning. Across 46 community reports, the median reported arrival time is 8:42 AM. Arrive by 11:00 AM for a good chance at tickets. At box office open, reporters have counted a median of about 15 people already in line, so aim to beat that. Reported success rates are high (around 100% of confirmed reports walked away with tickets), which suggests supply has mostly kept up with the line. Sundays have drawn the most reports, so expect heavier competition then; midweek tends to be easier. Rush tickets run $40 at the Circle in the Square. Rush timing: box office open (10 am weekdays/sat, 12 pm sun). All figures are community-reported, not official box office policy.
