You'd think with the traffic there that TSA and the airport would want more PreCheck, but who knows. It's LGA, after all. It's almost as though they make a point of making the place unpleasant.
The old metal detectors are usually on the other side of the elite line I've found. I show my ID on the Elite line on the left then go to the far right; the last few times for the old metal detectors. I'm usually through at least twice as fast than if I had stayed in the line in front of me.
Had some miffed people think I'm cutting them but no big deal.
