But......last week I flew RNO-ORD-LGA and then JFK-SFO (on a smaller "change of equipment" aircraft). The bag fit on all flights except for the ORD-LGA segment. My bag was not even full but the bottom plastic corner protector just would not make it past the frame of the cabinet. No matter what position or location we tried.

It was baffling because I believe it was the same type of 733 equipment. And of course, I was receiving all the tsk, tsk, tsk looks from the other passengers.
You sure that LGA-ORD leg was on AA? UA flues the 737s on that route. AA is MD80 or 757.
