I'm having a hard time understanding all the excitement and celebrations over Cinco de Mayo.
I understand it is about the Mexicans beating the French in a battle.
It seems to me the whole trick to actually beating the French in battle is being able to get a few licks on them before they can whip out the white flag.
BUT then a again,Who hasn't beaten the French ???
I guess when you don't have many wins,you have to really celebrate when you do get one
