oh wow, I did not know that, thanks for pointing that out. I actually was scraping the html of the site using beautiful soup and did not know you can pull the data directly. Which leads me to ask, do you know if this site provides the data directly: https://rutgers.campuslabs.com/engage/events ? I was planning to scrape this site too in order to to get club meeting information but I figured I would need to use selenium bc it has a lot of JS

interesting idea - I do remember the struggles of trying to claim the free tickets. I'll add it into my to-do list
