Anyway, I will be interested to see just what happened here, if the NTSB bothers to take note.

McVitties, a bowling team travelling with their (ahem!) balls as carry-ons, a squad of professional (US) football linemen getting to a game? Or odd cargo distribution down below?

Or possibly someone disabled, or tangled up in their carry-ons, in the aisle mid-airframe, which allowed the front to empty out while delaying forward movement of the rear passengers?
