It's a long story...basically I was Peggy in my school version, and we rented the purple sailor costume for the production. While we had it, the costume company went out of business, so they sold it to us for cheap.

^^ My tour guide told me they bussed you down to the show and fed you all for $40! I'm pretty positive the ticket was included in that price. Awesome!

This thread makes me happy. I'd heard -- falsely as I discover now -- that new (at least for my class) Admissions Dean Rapelye abolished the Hodgepodge along with the "YES" letter.

It's usually $20, I think (and does include ticket), and there are student discount coupons for the Met and NY Phil lying around the mailrooms.
