Last night boarding in DEN, there was a literal parade of wheelchairs and preboard passengers. I started counting and lost count at 23 or so (there were more). I have never seen this before, and the first 10 rows of the aircraft were taken up when I boarded with a low A. It was bizarre, and I have not had that experience before. I don't blame the preboarders at all, just merely an observation.

Is this a common occurrence?
And out of those 23+ who where in wheelchairs, how many used wheelchairs when they were leaving? 7 or 8?

I'm surprised Blue Cross doesn't require people to fly Southwest just for the therapeutic effect.
