This happened to me last week, sat in 1A but didn't queue until F was announced which put me on last. All the over heads were completely packed in F and I travel light, i only need a 3-4 inch space to put my lap top bag. I wasn't very appologetic when I had to shove my way back 5 rows to get my bag to deplane.
