It should be noted that General Ignacio Zaragoza was born in Goliad, Texas, which gives Texans another reason to celebrate the day.

Of course, Texans will celebrate anything at the drop of a bull calf's testicles. So there's that too.

That's a funny thing to call a hat, but yes, many times a beer drinking session will spontaneously turn into a celebration.
