“Cinco de Mayo will fall on Taco Tuesday. This is it people. This is what we’ve been training for”

Cinco de Mayo (“the fifth of May,” a popular day of celebration in the United States of Mexican-American culture) sometimes falls on a Tuesday (“Taco Tuesday”). “This year, Cinco de Mayo will fall on Taco Tuesday. This is it people. This is what we’ve been training for” has been printed on many images.
     
“This year Cinco de Mayo falls on taco Tuesday. This is it people. This is what we’ve been training for” was posted on Twitter by John on May 4, 2015.
   
“This year, 4/20 falls on taco Tuesday. This is it people. This is what we’ve been training for” is a similar saying.
   
         
Wikipedia: Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo (pronounced [ˈsiŋko ðe ˈmaio] in Latin America, Spanish for “Fifth of May”) is an annual celebration held on May 5. The date is observed to commemorate the Mexican Army’s victory over the French Empire at the Battle of Puebla, on May 5, 1862, under the leadership of General Ignacio Zaragoza. The victory of the smaller Mexican force against a larger French force was a boost to morale for the Mexicans. Zaragoza died months after the battle due to illness. A year after the battle, a larger French force defeated the Mexican army at the Second Battle of Puebla, and Mexico City soon fell to the invaders.
 
In the United States, Cinco de Mayo has taken on a significance beyond that in Mexico. More popularly celebrated in the United States than Mexico, the date has become associated with the celebration of Mexican-American culture.
