I always thought that was a NY thing- "Waiting on line", "Staying on line", etc. instead of "in line". I know of one song from the 80s, from a NY band that uses that line, and Connie said it in Godfather II (not NY, though), so...
Definitely a regional phrase. Down south we stand in line. Up north they stand on line.
From where I live, on the east coast, anything above me on the map is north ;-). But yes, I meant east coast north of the Mason Dixon line...
