Here’s one for today (specificly for this date:)
After WWII there was a severe shortage of condiments in Europe, so the Hellmans’s company arranged an emergency shipment. Unfortunately, on the way there, there was a severe storm, and the ship went down in heavy seas. To commemorate that, the day was henceforth known as Sinko de Mayo.

Re: Dwarf Tossing Contests? For real??
I mean, people like to toss lotsa things, including ... well, the expression “tossing one’s cookies” comes to mind...
but instead of short people, this 6-foot-5-inches person likes to remain in the realm of the safe, the non-offensive, just throwing wellies https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welly_wanging or even - tea bags. Apparently, in Germany that’s considered a fun activity. Wikipedia doesn’t know of it (these days, that’s a real achievement!), but google “Teebeutelweitwurf” and be prepared to be amazed at what people are ready to do in order to feel themselves entertained...

Today is Cinco de Mayo, in Mexico a relatively minor holiday, but in the United States, an excuse to indulge in margaritas, cervezas or beer, guacamole and tacos.
