I spent most of the evening just chatting with the other folks in the line. NYC is a great place for people watching, and there was no shortage of random entertainment on the street. It was super cold on the evening I camped out with a bone chilling wind most of the night.
A couple spots in front of me was a guy who was in town for business and said he spontaneously decided to join the line after his dinner meeting. He was dressed in his suit and had nothing but a briefcase. He spent most of the night standing and shivering without a hat or proper coat, and it was COLD! At one point we begged him to take an extended break or to at least go buy a hat. While the line is not officially monitored, there was always a security guard from NBC in the area keeping an eye on things.
You are not allowed to save spots for other people or disappear from line for extended periods of time. At around 4am a bagel and coffee truck came down the street, which by this time was mostly deserted except for us crazy people in line. The coffee was free paid for by NBC , and I think they made a small fortune from selling hand warming packets. At 7am sharp a couple of NBC staff members showed up with a clipboard and started the ticket process; by this time I would guess about people were in the line.
Turns out, most of them would get in for one of the two shows. When it comes time to collect your numbered standby ticket, you will have the choice of selecting a ticket for either the dress rehearsal at 8pm or the live show at pm. In general, the live taping is more popular, and so being number 50 on the dress rehearsal standby list may give you a better chance than being number 50 on the live taping.
As far as your experience in the audience, the dress rehearsal is arguable the better show since it often contains more jokes and skits that eventually get cut for the live show. Attending a show or not : Whether you won the ticket lottery or got incredibly lucky thanks to the standby line, congratulations — you can brag to your friends about how you saw Saturday Night Live.
