I was stuck carrying two bags with me, in addition to my laptop bag, PHL-DAB yesterday so, with heavy heart, I checked my bags when I checked in. When I arrived at DAB, I stopped by the rental car counter, picked up my car, and shot the breeze with the agent for a while (I'm a familiar face). I hear the baggage belt rumbling behind me, and continue to chat, realizing I won't have to rush over since, per Delta's normal baggage handling process, my bags will the the last off the flight. I finally turn and head on over.

I was shocked to see that my bags were actually the 4th and 5th ones off the flight!
