MSP and DTW to MSN on Thursday nights, I have seen upgrade lists over 100 for the same size planes. I used to live in Madison, and it was comical most of the time. Look out for the black Targus backpacks!
I was happy when I moved to see single-digit upgrade lists and nearly guaranteed upgrades on the way home after a work week.
And no Targus backpacks.
