Professional line standing has become increasingly common in recent years, though it has existed in the US since the early 1990s. The service had been provided in Washington D.C. for people who wanted to attend debates and meetings on Capitol Hill. Professional line standing came to the nation’s attention in 2012. Some professional line standers who were in line outside the Supreme Court for four days attracted media attention.
尽管专业代排自 1990 年代初就已在美国出现，这个现象近年来变得越来越普遍。在华盛顿特区，这项服务曾提供给想参加国会山庄辩论及会议的人。专业代排于 2012 年受到全国的注目。一些专业代排员在最高法院外排了四天的队，吸引媒体的关注。
