My usual airport, BWI, has notoriously slow baggage delivery. CO isn't too bad - 5 or 10 minutes; but Southwest is outrageous - a half hour wait is normal. The airlines teach people to try to carry everything onboard.
My gripe is the guy sitting in row 30 who stuffs everything in the bin over row 6.
