Craziest Sombrero contest, LOL--they can decorate their own for a prize and I bet they could find them cheaply at craft stores!
 
When I think Mexican I think Margaritas which makes me think Margaritaville which makes me think Jimmy Buffet which makes me think beach attire! So, maybe best beach shirt or for the Margaritaville shows that I did this summer I offered a prize to anyone that dressed in beach attire (had a few that did) and I just let them select from gift bowl... And of course, we served Slap Your Mama Margaritas. It's not really a game or contest, but it was fun... Or, there is a game on here that has Jimmy Buffet trivia if your host wants to lean in that direction... Type Margarita or Margaritaville (can't remember which) and there are quite a few files on different themes and show plans and menus and games... Good luck! These are fun shows!
