San Antonio's annual citywide party, Fiesta, is generally an easygoing affair. We tend to be inclusive of newcomers, and while there are plenty of rituals, they're not hard to figure out. Just shout "Show us your shoes!" when everyone else in the crowd does. And, oh yeah, don't punch anyone in the face when they break a cascarone over your head.
That said, there are a few missteps one can make at Fiesta. Party fouls, if you will. No one's going to throw you in the San Antonio River if you don't get this stuff right, but whether you're a newcomer or a seasoned reveler, it's best to brush up and know how to avoid basic Fiesta mistakes.
