About that other Ring

Well, we sent in our money -- and we opted for the better seats, too. jwg points out that this has us spending about ¾ as much to see four operas as the Red Sox charge us to see 50 operas whose endings aren't known in advance. (Don't say it, drevilmoo!)

Now we just have to wait (and wait and wait, I suspect) to see if there were actually any seats left.
