I rushed in November and the couple in front of me was asking about better seats and the box office people were not happy. Granted, I think it had more to do with the fact that the couple was holding up the line and trying to argue with them, but they still would not let them pick which seats. It would be worth asking because the worst they can tell you is no, though.
I was rushing waitress Saturday, and was watching the Band's Visit line. When I arrived to waitress at 7:30, there was 1 person. At 8:30, there was two. Then, around 9:30 a HUGE group of people randomly left Buffalo Wild Wings and went into the line. There were probably 15-20 people when the box office opened.

It sounds super obnoxious to be picky about your super discounted tickets. If you want "better" seats, pay slightly more to use a Broadway Box code and pick your own seat, especially if you're holding everyone else up.
If anyone is rushing this week, can you give an update? I wanted to know if announcing closing will impact rush waits. I'm thinking about rushing on Saturday - still haven't seen this!
Any updates? I’m gonna rush tomorrow morning (Sunday). The box office doesn’t open until noon. Has anyone rushed on a weekend lately? If I get there at 11, do you think that is sufficient?
"I'm an American, Damnit!!! And if it's three things I don't believe in, it's quitting and math."
Update for anybody who needs one: Sunday 2/24/19 arrived at 10:00 and was second in line (but first left so now I'm first), ten mins after the amount Rose to 5 people and as of 11:34; 16 people on line for 12:00 opening. I'll edit with an update when I get my ticket! Edit: 20 people were on the line by 12:00 and I think most of them got tickets. I got a seat in box A and it had an amazing view. Definitely would recommend rushing and seeing this show before it closes.
Debating whether I should just get myself a side mezz $45 in advance for the final Wednesday matinee or try rush. Do you think the rush line will get a little crazier closer to the closing date? Should I just go with the size mezz seat? Just need one. Thanks.

The rush line will probably get crazier as the closing gets closer. Depending on what side and seat you get, side mezz would be fine. The right has a better view than the left.
