I did not see any posts about Cinco de mayo. No one cares, or everyone is getting drunk or on their way to the party.

Myself, I could care less.

I was wondering when the "I don't care about Cinco de Mayo" thread would pop up.

So, here's the official SF Cinco de Mayo link: http://www.labatalladepuebla.com/

Cinco de Mayo & St. Patrick's Day are both holidays Americans use as an excuse to get drunk.

No, no, no. I replied to your thread to let you know it's completely lame as a community service. I was being helpful.

It's not celebrating beating up the French. Who hasn't? It's a celebration of the one time that Mexico was able to beat up on some one!

Cinco de Mayo
From Wikipedia,
Not to be confused with Mexican Independence Day, which occurs on September 16.

Battle of Puebla
Observed by

US Americans, mixed nationality;
citizens of Puebla, Puebla

Date May 5, 1862
Observances

Celebration in the United States of Mexican-American culture and experiences. Only somewhat celebrated in Mexico.

Cinco de Mayo (Spanish for "fifth of May") is a celebration held on May 5. It is celebrated mostly by Mexican people in some parts of the United States and regionally in Mexico, primarily in the state of Puebla, where the holiday is called El Día de la Batalla de Puebla (English: The Day of the Battle of Puebla). The date is observed in the United States as a celebration of Mexican heritage and pride, and to commemorate the cause of freedom and democracy during the first years of the American Civil War. In the state of Puebla, the date is observed to commemorate the Mexican army's unlikely victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862, under the leadership of General Ignacio Zaragoza Seguín. Contrary to widespread popular belief, Cinco de Mayo is not Mexico's Independence Day—the most important national patriotic holiday in Mexico—which is actually celebrated on September 16.

Maria said that's true up until this year. Now, with so many repatriates, they've imported the celebrating from the U.S.



Vet, I'll give you one guess which one is my father-in-law:
