Here are some tips for improving your \u2018sakura etiquette\u2019 to ensure a splendid time is guaranteed for all:<br \/><br \/>\u2022 Don&#8217;t even think about hitting the bottle in a park where the trees haven\u2019t bloomed yet. Just because everyone\u2019s too pissed to actually view the blossoms at hanami, doesn\u2019t mean people won\u2019t notice you\u2019re there when the blossoms aren\u2019t.<br \/><br \/>\u2022 Snaring the best spot is imperative, and can be difficult when people \u2018reserve\u2019 their place in the park sometimes days in advance (maybe Lawson should start selling tickets). But resorting to underhanded tactics to secure your spot early doesn\u2019t have to be an option. Maybe wait until people sitting in prime possies are passed out, then you can roll them to another spot with little distress. If they won\u2019t budge, roll your blue tarp over the top of them \u2013 hey, you\u2019re providing shelter and keeping them safe and warm. Everybody wins!<br \/><br \/>\u2022 For fuck\u2019s sake, don\u2019t bring your karaoke machine unless you want your life to be as short-lived as the blossoms (and far less appreciated). Just don\u2019t go there. Better to lynch than be lynched.<br \/><br \/>\u2022 When nature calls, don\u2019t relieve yourself on a cherry blossom tree. Way to kill a party and a tree, dude.<br \/><br \/>\u2022 If you forget to bring your blue tarp, it\u2019s probably not okay to park yourself on someone else\u2019s. And if you happen to come across an apparently unused one, make sure you haven\u2019t just laid claim to a homeless person\u2019s roof. Ask politely and you may be allowed to share.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hanami Manners 101 By Emily Millar \u00a0 First-time hanami goers may not be aware of the subtle underlying rules that govern cherry blossom viewing amongst thousands of other revellers.
