Different experience here. I rarely go through MEM, but I go through DTW and MSP often. While I have experienced this type of delay a couple of times in MSP, it seems to happen much more frequently in DTW. Just as ballpark estimates, I'd guess it happens close to 50% of the time arriving in DTW, but I'd be surprised if it's more than 10% or 15% in MSP. YMMV
