Well, that's why you are supposed to do. I imagine it's

Even as an American I wish I could say I was there to witness it. It must be a truly remarkable celebration.

The local squadron has won the sporting competition. It is time to consume unhealthy levels of alcohol and wreck other people's property, verily.
