    Some do, mostly as another party day. Not necessarily for it’s significance.

      As a Mexican I can say that cinco de mayo is just a marketing holiday similar to saint Patrick’s day and capitalism has ruined any significance behind the actual batalla de Puebla… ooooh, did you just say you have a colorful donkey tequila on sale? Count me in 🤠

      It’s mostly because we’re taking a hint from the gringos and see a good marketing opportunity for an excuse to party.

    All the Mexican American places in my area is taking full advantage with deals. Even the Irish pub near by is doing a shamrock taco. It’s big here.

      they’re just joining in on Americans thinking that it’s a big deal to boost sales but it’s not a significant holiday

    May 5 is Cinco de mayo, a Mexican holiday that has been adopted in many places, like America. During that holiday, Mexican restaurants are filled with food specials.

    So OP was just living life and then suddenly was bombarded with tequila shots and taco deals from hungry college kids.
