I have some neighbors who regularly have a huge bash lasting all night long - it’s happened every Cinco de Mayo for nearly a decade.
This year - nothing.
The whole town is quiet. This used to be one of the noisiest days of the year. Is anyone else noticing this in their community?
Yeah it seems to be more of a Mexican-American thing. Also it has become sort of a Hallmark Holiday in the US, meaning the significance is amplified by marketing.
I mean the weather is usually beautiful on May 5, so any excuse to have a party.
