Traditionally, a lot of Broadway audiences were made up from folks who lived in the tri-state area, as well as tourists both foreign and domestic. There were audiences of theater parties, many of the women. Plus, many of those "tired businessman" shows were indeed almost geared for guys who worked in offices around NYC with their wives or girlfriends to go to after a long day or week at the office. Flying to see a show is a more modern and entirely subjective way of measuring something like this. Do you measure how many folks fly across the Atlantic to see someone in London as a basis of who is the hottest star in London? It might not really correlate either. It's interesting to hear your take on this, based on your purchased tickets or cashed in frequent flyer miles, but as some sort of statistical study, it's kind of amusing balderdash.
