The Broadmuda Triangle: Introduction

"If You Build It, They Will Come..."

When Founding Broad Lisa announced her intention to dedicate an entire website to the boy from Raleigh, the face of Clay Aiken websites changed forever. (note from Nelle: If you go to FB Lisa's site, and her 'notify list' function is turned on, please do not sign up expecting updates about LBFCA. Her updates are about her site, not LBFCA).

As the American Idol momentum heightened, Clay Aiken fansites began popping up all over the internet. Message Boards with highly organized threads and superior moderation ate bandwidth like King Kong sucks down bananas. A dedicated fan could learn nearly everything there is to know about Clay Aiken, from his birthdate, to his shoe size, to the cost of the red leather jacket he wore on "Grease" night. Terms were coined, acronyms were invented and The Language of Clay evolved. Fandom rose to new and unprecedented heights.

Every fan needs a niche. A place to call home. Every fan site is not for every person. There must be a meeting of the minds, or interest will fizzle and we go back to surfing aimlessly. Personally, I visited every major Clay fan site on the web, but I kept coming back to LBFCA. Religiously. I can truthfully say something good about every Clay Aiken website in existence, but LBFCA kept drawing me in with its witty mainpage, clever banter in the guestbook and the most wonderful double entendres I�ve heard to date.

Before long, LBFCA sucked me in and I knew there was no getting out.

I was caught in...

I couldn�t be happier that I got caught in the swirling juices of Lecherous Broads for Clay Aiken. I�ve met and become real life friends with a number of kind, considerate, respectful, generous and utterly hilarious people. It�s an honor to be in their company.

Welcome to The Broadmuda Triangle. Meet The Broads.
