Cinco de Mayo

The origins of Cinco de Mayo goes back to the Battle of Peubla, about 150 years ago. The French attacked two Mexican forts, but the Mexican army came out victorious. Some would call Cinco de Mayo, Mexico's Independence Day, but that is not the case. Mexico's Indepence Day is on September 16. How Cinco de Mayo translates to loading up on tequilla and passing out at Senor Frogs, I don't know.
