Where to celebrate Cinco de Mayo in Bethesda on Monday, May 5, and on the weekend before it?

Order your $7 ticket online, and then go to Union Jack's Bethesda at 4:30 PM Saturday, to pick up your wristband from the registration table. Your wristband will entitle you to a $3 special Cinco de Mayo drinks, $3 tequila shots, $2 Yuengling/Yuengling Lights, $4 Coronas, and $3 special rail drinks of your choice.

The following bars are participating in the crawl:
