The next day, I flew on a discounted ticket with no priority tags and my luggage arrived in the first 10 bags. Perhaps it depends on the airport but much more often than not I've found that luggage handlers do not try very hard to put priority tagged bags out first.
Was this CO? If so, I'm surprised. CO usually does a good job honoring priority tags domestically.
