The Holy Grail of our journey

Tomorrow is the day. We made our t-shirts. We bought our little gift for Drew. We discussed our strategy. Now we just have to take a deep breath and hope to make it work, for tomorrow, at 5AM we head to CBS Studios for a taping of the Price is Right. As I can't imagine anyone not knowing, contestants are chosen from the studio audience. As with all TV shows, not to mention airlines, more tickets are supplied than there are seats available, so admittance is first-come, first-served. Just having a ticket does not ensure admittance. Order-of-admission numbers begin to be distributed at 6AM, so we plan to be there shortly after 5AM. The network representative I spoke to assured me that tomorrow, being a Monday, not to mention a holiday, is sure to be a very busy day. If we don't get in, we will be devastated. Although we dream, of course, of hearing one of our names being called to "come on down," just screaming in the audience will be a treat for both of us, for whom coming to be a live part of TPIR has been a dream for much of our lives. Wish us luck!
