Today is Cinco de Mayo, a Mexican holiday, and the ‘Derb is getting into the act, with $2 tequila pops, a $5 Dos Hombres special (a Tecate beer and tequila shot) and half-price tacos. Sounds like a good deal to me!
Cinco de Mayo is often billed as Mexican Independence Day, which is not actually true — it commemorates a victory over the French in Puebla in 1862. It’s actually not a huge deal in Mexico apparently, but hey, I like parties.
