That sounds like a holiday created by beer manufacturers... (Great idea for a Holiday -- my buddies and I use Texas Independence day (March 16) for that purpose whenever possible.)

I have heard form some Argetinias of this day before. Can you explain where it comes from, or how old this tradition is?

The Day of the Friend (Dia del Amigo) was invented back in 1963 by Mr. Febbraro, who still lives and is aged 83, as far as I know.
