First, the New York City Opera is promoting this season with a Kehinde Wilde painting? What cool branding you've done for yourself. Met, are you just going to stand for this? What have you got?
Okay, well I guess one thing the Met has is its free outdoor seats to opening night. It does have that.
A day early and everything's set up and ready to go. I used counting and multiplication to figure out how many seats there were. At least 2500, maybe 3000.
My numbers aren't precise not because of a multiplication error but for sloppiness in my counting of the front section seats.
Just to the side of all this a great big line of would-be Das Rheingold ticketholders had already assembled. I'm pretty impressed by the Met's efforts to be accessible to the public . . . outdoor broadcasts, rush tickets, family circle seats, amazing student bargains, opera is available for you over here in New York City if you want it.

I'd like to be in one of the orange seats.
