It's literally the biggest day of the year for Newport drinking establishments. By mid-afternoon, most of the town is shit faced and people are passed out on sidewalks. The Police & Fire News section of the Newport Daily News on Monday after the parade is usually a full page long - mostly open container and public urination charges. The nicer the weather, the bigger the turnout.

Kind of is. It's usually fun early in the day, when every one is feeling festive, but it typically takes a dark turn pretty quick and if you're not a big drinker it's a sloppy mess.
