How can I get standby for free for an earlier United flight from my connecting city?

Accepted answer
So apparently there's NO FEE for getting added onto the standby list if you arrived on a connecting flight. Source: I just did it and the agent told me there's no fee as long as you arrive on a previous connecting flight.
(I have no status with united, I rarely fly with them and have like no miles or anything.)
Thanks everybody for their input.

Officially it depends on your status. Here are the rules: https://www.united.com/web/en-US/content/reservations/samedaychange.aspx
This being said, you can always ask. If your original flight is oversold or if the expect a large rebooking crowd because of an earlier delay and there are plenty of open seats on your original flight, they will probably take you.
