So, this is truly the ugly side of cultural appropriation from Mexico. A one-time celebration of victory in battle is now just a marketing man’s dream. Whilst proclaiming to promote the food, fashion and arts of Mexico, it’s drinking holding pride of place. So any Mexican gambling laws of decency would halt this silliness would be optimistic to say the least. Outside interests have appropriated and exploited this supposedly Mexican holiday. Alas, in Mexico it’s not very special.
