Cinco de Mayo is that one day in May when your history teacher suddenly gets really excited about battles, and your neighbor starts blasting mariachi music at 8 AM. It marks the Mexican army’s win over the French in 1862, which somehow turned into a full-blown celebration with tacos, dancing, and people shouting words they can’t pronounce. Somewhere between the salsa and the sombreros, Cinco de Mayo Puns started showing up like confetti at a parade.
At our last Cinco de Mayo party, someone brought a giant bowl of guacamole and a bigger bowl of bad jokes. One uncle couldn’t stop with the puns as he thought he was hilarious, and honestly, he kind of was. That’s when we realized, Cinco de Mayo Puns are part of the celebration now. They sneak into every conversation like salsa on your shirt, unexpected, a little messy, but totally part of the fun.
