I thought the harsh crowd control measures like pens you can't leave, and having to arrive like 8-12+ hours beforehand, were security after. Maybe that tamped down the crowds, but the experience sounds miserable.

My dad did the ball drop in the early 80s when it was kinda sketch to say the least, but that sounded better than what it is now to me.

Back then the crowds where huge but you could move from section to another. Now the crowds are less but you cant move…and no rest rooms.
