How to Beat Airport Security Lines

On the way back from Costa Rica I land in Miami.  As I'm entering customs I realize that the line is gonna take FOREVER!!!   It is MASSIVELY LONG!!!  So while contemplating about how miserable I'm gonna be in this line I glance over to my left and see a sign:

"HANDICAPPED INDIVIDUALS AND THOSE WHO NEED ASSISTANCE"

There is nobody there, not one person waiting in this area where I'm sure there is hardly ever a line.

The wheels in my head start turning.

I limp over to the lady near the line, dragging my right leg behind me.

Me:  Excuse me, ma'am.
Lady:  Yessir
Me:  I injured my knee recently.  Is there anyway I could possibly use this line?
Lady:  WHY OF COURSE SWEETIE!  Here, let me help you.  You just walk right this way and you can see this gentlemen here, he will help you out.

I wait 2 minutes for the customs guy to finish with his current individual, then I step in, ahead of EVERYONE.  That's right, I don't see my own customs guy, I get to CUT THE LINE, in front of ALLLLLLLL the people who have been waiting FOREVVVVVVER!!  As I finish up with customs I drag my leg behind me for what seemed like an eternity until I turn the corner and exit into the next room...where I immediately haul ass to my connecting flight.

LOL..
