Problem is this isnt an official holiday in Mexico, in fact its barely recognized as a holiday at all. The main place the 5th of May is celebrated is in the U.S. and its basically a gringo creation.
Another excuse to booze it up, like St. Patrick's Day and Mardi Gras.

most holidays are embellished....look how Mothers day/Fathers day/Valentines Day etc are pushed so we'll buy candy and flowers and send expensive cards...
other holidays are for drinking and eating....
its called "AMERICA"...
