And unfortunately this adds to the issue. Not you personally, but the fact that there are so many people there, one has to push through, which causes others to push forward.

I watched as one group 1 person tried to push through 3-4 layers of us group 1 people. It wasnt until the second layer he got through that he realized he was only pushing himself up to the front of his own group. Rude. Someone stopped him right in his tracks. Folks, if you are going to navigate through people before boarding, be damn certain you are at least a GS.
