Cinco de Mayo, Gravediggers and Heisman High Schools

The battle commemorated on Cinco de Mayo was fought during the U.S. Civil War.

Among the roster of former gravediggers at London's Highgate Graveyard is singer Rod Stewart.

Santa Ana, California's Mater Dei High School  (John Huarte '61 and Matt Leinart '01) and Dallas, Texas's Woodrow Wilson High School (Davey O'Brien and Tim Brown) are the only two high schools in the nation with two Heisman-trophy winning alumni.
