Just a note to say that big love and obsession do NOT go hand in hand with number of times having seen the show. Many of us have seen it quite a few times, many only once or even none at all. How many times one has seen the show doesn't make them a "better" fan or anything like that. And BoZ status has NOTHING to do with obsession level or viewing count. In fact, I think think BoZ are some of the least "obsessed" people on this board right now. Thank you. Not all of us are lucky enough to live in the city, and some of us live across the country. That doesn't mean we can't appreciate a good show. It just means we have to rely on others (like this group ;D) to remind us of the lines we may have forgotten or share news about the show, the cast and/or their own experiences.

As long as people are going to call you a lunatic anyway, why not get the benefit of it?

Being a BoZ has nothing to do with how many times we have seen Wicked. The BoZ are the Moderators and Admins who run the board, and are BoZians for reasons other than how obsessed we are with the show.
Aly, Sugar Therapy, created this board for one reason and one reason alone: to give the fans of the show a place to chat about the show and the actors RESPECTIVELY. And she enlisted us to help her ensure that this board stays a friendly place where people feel welcome. So we're here to do a job, and we do it. We do it because we want all of you here to enjoy yourselves when you are here, and because we love Wicked too. Sure some of us can't see it as often as we would like, but that certainly doesn't we don't care. If we didn't care, we wouldn't be here.
Like Aly said, right now some of the BoZ are the least obsessed people on the board right now. Sometimes life and working and such get in the way. But we're here to keep this place happy. Some of us may not every single line in the show, or every single dance step. But we know how to keep this place up so that the posters here have a good time when they're here. And to us, that's more important.

Ditto to what everyone else is saying... you can still be totally obsessed with something even if you haven't seen it a million times. I could live on Mars and I would still be obsessed with Wicked, llam.
I've seen Wicked 4 times, and although I sometimes complain that I want to see the OBC a zillion times more, I am grateful that I had the chance to see it with them more than once. And I would be going to do lotto/cancellation line every day lol... if certain things didn't get in my way (ie - parents) haha.

The sad thing is, this wasn't through the lottery. I paid full price for all the tickets...it will take me forever to pay off my credit card...but it was worth it!!!

Ooh. Ouch. I saw it twice, the first time through a school chorus trip, the second for my sister's birthday. By a sheer stoke of luck, my friend and I won the lottery in our school (they could only get thirty Wicked tickets and there were 140 people on the trip) and both got to see the OBC, minus Cheno.

Just the once for me, on January 1, 2005. Idina, Chris, and Joey were still around, although JLT was out. Megan Hilty rocked, but I won't be in NYC again before she leaves, I think. Ah well.
