Cinco de-Mayo...
 

What does Cinco de-Mayo mean??...Something with Mexico on the fifth of May...Anybody now??...or just another day to DRINK....

Something Corona came up with in the seventies so people would drink more Corona. :D

Cinco De Mayo means 5th of May.

Its a marketing ploy developed to get you to buy Corona beer.

Kinda like the whole glock pistol thingie.

According to the History Channel's website:
Cinco de Mayo—or the fifth of May—commemorates the Mexican army's 1862 victory over France at the Battle of Puebla during the Franco-Mexican War (1861-1867). A relatively minor holiday in Mexico, in the United States Cinco de Mayo has evolved into a celebration of Mexican culture and heritage, particularly in areas with large Mexican-American populations. Cinco de Mayo traditions include parades, mariachi music performances and street festivals in cities and towns across Mexico and the United States.

I didn't know either, thanks for asking, now we both learned something today:)

Day of the Dead in Mexico - Dia de los Muertos - Mexican Day of the Dead

No, canebrake has it right.

I like beer. And tequila. But not at the same time.
