Odds of getting an Angels Landing hiking permit.

So a little background first. we had been to Zion national park a few years ago as a family and tried to hike Angels Landing. However, once we got to the top, before the narrow chain section, it was almost at a standstill of people in line going both directions. I still can’t get over the number of people I saw in that line wearing flip-flops. Needless to say it didn’t seem like a great idea to continue. We enjoyed the moment, and the view from where we got to, turned around and went back down. I did it at the time, however, promise my teenage son we would come back to finish that.
Back to present day, he has spring break coming up at the end of March and I am looking to plan a vacation and finish that hike. What I didn’t realize was there was a short window to get permits early for the Angels Landing hike. And now I’m trying to decide if I pull the trigger on flights, Rent-A-Car, hotel rooms on the off chance I’ll be able to get the next day permit.
Does anyone have any thoughts or insight into what the lottery could look like for a Thursday or Friday or Saturday near the end of March? I only need one of three days. If this were you, would you take the risk?
