Happy Cinco de Mayo
The great celebration invented by Budweiser
Only slightly noted in Mexico
Celebrating the great one day victory of the peasant army of Puebla, stopping the great French army set on invading Mexico City,
and of course the next day after the amazing "victory" the French simply marched around Puebla, over the hill and still conquered the capital.
Viva Bud Lite!!

Cinco de Mayo….An American celebration ruined by my sobriety!
If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!
"Could do better if he tried!" Report card comments from most of my grade school teachers. Sadly, still true!

Not sure of the details, but isn't Bud owned by a Euro Co.,
which also has Corona, Pacifico? States Corona is the
largest import to the US. Another example of how far as a
country we have fallen.
AK, it is at times better for all concerned that
one curtailed/eliminates the consumption. Baja can
bring out the over indulgence

Sobriety is a terrible disease, and AA is for quitters.

If it is any consolation, in the past dozen years, it is amazing how widespread Pacifico is now served (at least here in SoCal).

On the other had, Bud and Bud Light seem to be favorites of Mexicans.

This might explain why it's more popular in the US.

I have to agree, based on the Mexicans in my area...........and the amount of empties left on the beach.

I'm having tacos with three beautiful women at the best Mexican restaurant in town, Chihuahuas.
I wasn't alone. Helping me escort them was my good friend, Don Julio.
