Cinco de Mayo is a Mexican holiday celebrated today- the 5th of May! The date is observed to recognize the Mexican Army’s unlikely victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5th, 1862.
In the United States, Cinco de Mayo is heavily celebrated. Our Florida Injury Lawyers at Whittel & Melton want to help you celebrate safely. Here’s how to have an unforgettable and safe Cinco de Mayo:
Plan Ahead
If you know you are going to be out drinking, have a plan of action for getting home: use Uber or Lyft, a taxi or have a designated driver.
Obey the Law
If you are going to drink, don’t drive. If you are underage, do not drink. Stay home and have some good clean fun with family and friends and have an alcohol-free fiesta! Who says you need booze to have a great Cinco de Mayo? You can always plan your own party equipped with virgin Pina Coladas, frozen Margaritas, and Bloody Marys. There’s plenty of fun to be had for everyone!
