To paint the town red

to paint the town redTo paint the town red is an idiom which means to go out and enjoy yourself in the evening, often drinking a lot of alcohol and dancing your little socks off.

I’ve been wondering if this idiom comes from Bunol and the La Tomatina festival. What do you think?
