I am one of those people who hadn’t had a chance to see Hamilton before it came to Disney+. I knew what it was about and I’d heard some of the songs (I honestly don’t know how big of a rock you’d have to have been living under to not), but seeing it in person had eluded me.
Like these 11 people, I was super excited to give it a go. Also like these 11 people, I had thoughts and a mighty need to discuss afterward, so please, enjoy their innocence and indulge their enthusiasm, okay?
11. If that doesn’t get you I don’t know what will.
Because there’s not a dry eye in the house.

10. There’s no preparing for which bit you’ll be humming on any given day.
But it will be a Hamilton lyric.
The Hamilton lyric "your perfume smells like your daddy's got money" is the one stuck in my head today. I fear that like many of my thoughts tweeting it is the only way to excise it.

9. Hamilton’s stamina was crazy.
I feel like a lazy pos every time I think about it, you?

7. Most of the time the whole dueling thing seems terrible.
But then someone says something like this.

2. It’s a moment worth waiting for.
And a moment that should make everyone cheer.

1. We’ve all been the “and Peggy” at some point in our lives.
Just one more reason to relate.
Nobody:
Not a single person:
Peggy: AND PEGGY!#Hamilfilm

I’m a history buff/nerd, so I knew I would love Hamilton, but I wasn’t prepared for how much!
