Digital Rush Question

I have been really interested in seeing Fiddler in Yiddish off-B'way and I have a date I want to see it using the Today Tix rush. Long story short, I cannot enter the rush until around an hour before curtain, so if there are still rush tickets available, will I still be able to enter? Today Tix does not mention anything of a cut off time so I am really curious if it is possible. Has anyone digitally rushed a show right before curtain?

I did the TodayTix rush for Fiddler a few weeks ago. Fiddler is a concierge show and they say the concierge will be there starting 30 minutes before curtain so with the time needed to print out the tickets, sort them and that concierge to walk over to the theater to be there 30 minutes before, I can't imagine the cutoff would be any later than an hour before curtain and probably sooner than that. You can just give them a call and ask. They should be able to tell you definitively and they're not hard to reach. Or you can easily figure it out. Pick a performance or two this week and keep checking it the last 2 or 3 hours before curtain to see at what point the message goes from "available now" to "the rush will reopen tomorrow". There's your answer.  Of course that could be because the rush sold out prior to when the cutoff would have been but I don't think that's happening very often with this show.
