    Cinco De Mayo. It was celebrated heavily in mexico due to the battle of Puebla in the Frencha/Mexican War. Mexicans won the battle of Puebla(1862?). Well, MANY Mexicans immigated to the parts of america like Texas and such (border states) and the holiday caught on, lol. I like to think its the Mexican St. Patty's Day.
