Alright fellow Coloradoan, What do you propose to do on that day. I have plans to eat at Taco Bell. How's that for Mexican tradition. LOL

Hehehehe, well I plan on avoiding South Federal and the barrios. I think I can bear to miss the lowrider traffic jams, the boom cars playing mariachi music, and the random drive-by shootings this year.
Mostly, I don't celebrate the Mexican victory as much as I take yet another day to scoff at the french.
I think I will stay home, continue packing the house, painting the rooms, drinking German beer, and maybe play some 50s rock and roll.
And hey, since Denver finally celebrates Oktoberfest down on Larimer Square, I have no hostility towards any other ethnic celebrations anymore.
Juneteenth, Cinco de Mayo, Oktoberfest, St Patrick's Day, who cares as long as folks have some fun, music, and can drink a little beer outdoors? It's only when they turn violent that I object.
(edited to add St Patrick's Day, how could I have forgotten THAT one? [:D])
