Every morning at 5am, the alarm goes off. What am I doing? I’m waiting for Santa Maria della Grazie to drop the next batch of tickets to see Da Vinci’s last supper. Nothing for days.
Finally, triumph! The ticket drop has just occurred and I’ve got the cream of the crop. Except for the one day I’m in Milan…Sunday, October the 4th. 2026. No tickets that day.
Lo and behold, I find out, they’re set aside in a separate drop for locals! I know they become available Wednesday at noon the week before. My question: are there any special tricks to getting that batch? Anybody know any inside info? Or do I just go to the website on Wednesday, say my prayers at 11:59, and type as fast as I can?
