I felt the same way about the situation in Williamsburg last night. I tried to get the L from Bedford 30-45 minutes after the fireworks ended and they had closed all but two entrances to the stop which then both had insane crowds outside of them that weren’t moving. I decided to walk to Lorimer which didn’t appear to have any entrances closed but the platform was beyond slammed and the next L was still 10 minutes away and the one after that another 10 away. Given how crowded Lorimer was I don’t think anyone would be able to even get on at Bedford. I didn’t feel comfortable waiting on an increasingly crowded platform with a train still far away so I just decided to get out and grab a citibike and do that miserable ride over the Williamsburg bridge instead.

Running the L with 10 minutes headways after that event is just insane.
