What is the biggest parade in the US by people in attendence? Is it the West Indian Carnival in Brooklyn?
ANSWER PERSON RESPONDS: The West Indian Carnaval in Brooklyn is supposed to have at least 2 million attendees, so it likely is. Certainly in NYC, and so likely in the USA. Estimates of such crowds are notoriously fuzzy, so there’s no official winner. The Sao Paulo Gay Parade bills itself as the largest in the world: http://www.v-brazil.com/tourism/sao-paulo/gay-parade-history.html at over 2 million attendees.

Maybe so, but Wikipedia says that “close to 2 million people” lined Broad Street.
