Everyone has their version of how Christmas is celebrated. By the way, you might be surprised as to how they originally celebrated Christmas. It was a pagan holiday not a Catholic one.
In certain parts of the world, people don't give gifts or receive any because they are poor. So what do the do instead. They drink massive amounts of alcohol with friends and family. They would do that anytime but because it's a holiday they will use it as an excuse and like a free hall pass. They just binge drink because it's Christmas, or New Years, or Easter, or its their distant relatives baptismal......they don't care. Any excuse is a good excuse to get piss drunk.
