I remember the first time I visited Tokyo. The subway to Shinjuku station was packed. People seemed annoyed by my bags. We were really crammed in. Someone remarked to me that it was "rush hour" for people going home from their offices.

It was 10pm on a weeknight.

10pm on a weeknight is around when the post-drinking going home rush hour starts. The last and second to last trains are miserable experiences for me since they reek of alcohol and I'm terrified of someone projectile vomiting on me.

A guy I know from Tokyo witnessed just such an event. He was on a train so packed you couldn't move, and when one of the commuters started yakking on his neighbor neither of them could move, so the victim had to just sit there and take it.
