St. Patty's day it somewhat more of an established holiday. I see it on my calendars that I buy in the stores anywhere. I don't see Cinco De Mayo on the calendars. I've hardly even heard of Cinco De Mayo before this year. I'm sure I did but I didn't hear of it as often before.
Also we don't have an Oktoberfest in our town so I wouldn't count that one either.
I think St Patty's day is more prolific because it's also more of a religiously based holiday. There are fewer American holidays that have no religious celebrations that go with them.
