The annual Mardi Gras of the year in the Philippines which is held on the Queen City of the South "CEBU", and people won't agree on whats going down on the celebration date, cause of to much Cebuano anticipation of the annual Party in the street and someone steps up to ruin the party to get the celebration without liquor, you heard me right, It's F'ing Liquor ban!
They say a Mayor is just a person representing the people and the people say "WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT?", well what the fuck indeed, we never asked for a liquor ban, what kind of festive Mardi Gras does the tourists suppose to expect to come back, the fun they have the last time, if you throw the fun a side.
Well to be honest this won't go down easy, you think 10 police officers can stop a 1000 People with bottles in there hands, its not just a 1000 people on the streets with beer, its the whole freaking Cebuano community with booze and that will party hard till they drop. People won't go down with this, so SINULOG is still on, who cares right!
Here is the article that was posted to get the details.. RETARDS
There way over there head, okey to be honest about this, foreigners come back annually cause of the fun they had and the balik-bayan folks as well cause its to pay respect and had fun as well but they even say its absurd, Its like "Oktobeerfest" in "Germany" without any BEER. They are taking away what made its great and that attracted more and more tourists year after year its because what crazy happens yearly on that very event to experience our culture.
| As the yearly Sinulog festival kicked off during the weekend in Cebu City, officials imposed a liquor ban of sorts in areas near the venues of the festivities. Radio dzBB’s Cebu affiliate reported Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama ordered the ban while preparations are ongoing. The report said Rama also banned brewing companies from selling liquor in places such as parks and sports complexes near the parade route. A city ordinance bans the sale and serving of liquors and other intoxicating products near churches, hospitals, schools and public plazas. Earlier, security was beefed up in Cebu City for the Sinulog, one of the country’s major tourist attractions. The highlight of the festival is on Jan. 16. Many local and foreign tourists have already booked hotel rooms in advance for the event. Organizers said some 9,000 rooms in the city’s hotels and pension houses had already been fully booked. Among the guests expected at this year’s Sinulog are President Benigno Aquino III and representatives from Yeosu City in Korea, a sister city of Cebu. The Sinulog is a dance ritual in honor of the miraculous image of the Santo Niño (Christ Child). - LBG, GMANews.TV |

It only comes once a year and who said they can stop the fun from us Cebuano's, thats what makes us Cebuano's in the 1st place, P.L.U.R.(Peace. Love. Unity. Respect) so pay your respects to the Saint himself by respecting the tradition and party!
For Sr. Sto. Niño, we pay our respect and celebrate his day! VIVA! PIT SENOR! and let the booze flow with the sound of the DRUM BEAT!.
