So...what do people actually think of this "holiday"? To me, it's just another excuse to "party" (kind of similar to St. Patrick's Day, in my opinion)....

I personally never really thought of it as a holiday exactly. I have a cousin who was born on this day so it just happened to be his party every year instead.

Right you are. In Mexico, the country from which the celebration originates, Cinco de Mayo is not a big holiday. All it is is a day that commemorates a battle victory over the French. Americans just want any chance they can get to party hard.

I have no opinion, lol. I really dont know much about the holiday but have never viewed it as major... i am sure some folks have strong opinions one way or another...

I really don't know what Cinco de Mayo is about either :dontknow:
