Universalis, your very own breviary in pixels...

I guess is depends on where you live...

This article from our U.S. shepherds' official news organ tells us that, "Dioceses from Anchorage, Alaska, to Syracuse, N.Y., have been posting notices on their Web sites about how to request tickets for the papal Mass at Yankee Stadium, which holds 65,000 people, and an April 17 Mass at Nationals Park in Washington, which will seat up to 45,000 people for the event.But the various notices make one thing clear: If your opportunity to request a ticket has not already passed, it will soon."
Not so.
MY opportunity did not pass, for it never existed.
I called our chancery fairly early in the process and met with nothing but (slightly annoyed) surprise that i would think they would have anything to do with it.
"Call New York, if that's where he's going to be, our diocese doesn't handle things like that," said the priest who one might have thought would be in charge.
Ca ne fait rien, nodes or not I'm probably very, very, very busy that week.
