I guess it's worse for New Years though?

It was because its New Year's Eve and people were queuing up for Hatsumode at Yoyogi park. The Yamanote train line had a queue of about 45 mins, which was backed up almost to the foot bridge. The bad luck was I tried to go to the right where there's a second exit that they let us through on the 29th, but they'd bolted it on the 31st and when I got there after half an hour of shuffling through the crowd, I realized it was locked so I had to wait until the crowd thinned out and go out the regular gate. THAT took an hour and it was like sardines being mushed in a can. Plus there was the train trip and walking back to the hotel, so that took me roughly 3 hours. I'm a bit traumatized actually, and its a major reason why I'm not super keen to go on the 31st this year.
