For more than 80 years, the parade has drawn spectators who line the streets and cheer on the participants.

The parade typically draws 50+ floats and is a favorite for the locals.

Not surprisingly, the parade did not draw many veterans.

The parade features all types of cars and draws crowds of spectators.

In only its second year, the parade drew over 250,000 spectators and significant national media attention.

The 2005 and 2006 parades each drew upwards of 500 people.

The parade draws an estimated crowd of over 300,000 people each year.

The parade no longer draws 200,000, and fostering a spirit of togetherness has not always been easy.

Later, a Rastafarian parade to the town center drew similar skeptical puzzlement.

The parade and festival drew only about 25,000 attendees in 1994, but this soared to more than 100,000 by 1996.
