That reminds me of last week in the ATL, we were taxiing into ramp 1, and there was a SW jet on Lima...looking for...ramp 3 I think, but he was only going about 5mph!
I said, "Quick, someone take a video of that, I have NEVER seen a SW jet only going 5mph!"
Welcome to the Suck, and prepare to...wait out on Lima for ramp entry...and then wait for your gate to come open.
