===RENT-heads===
''Rent'' gathered a following of fans who refer to themselves as "RENT-heads".  The name originally referred to people who would camp out at the [[Nederlander Theater]] for hours in advance for the discounted $20 rush tickets to each show, though it generally refers to anyone who is obsessed with the show.<ref name="Time for 'Rent'">Adams, Bob.
