The big night has arrived. Dust off the tuxedo t-shirts and break out those prom and bridesmaids dresses you thought you'd never wear again. Yes, all of Philadelphia's finest, by which I mean anyone who follows us or visits the site, will be walking the whatever-color-carpet-is in-their-house tonight (mine is sort of off-white and I'm not sure if it's supposed to be that way or is just dirty, but I digress). So sit back and enjoy responsibly, the biggest night in the Broad Street Beat year has arrived. Welcome to the 2013 Broadys!
First let’s take a minute to remember all the followers we've lost since last year...just kidding, unfollowers aren't important, we're here to celebrate you fine folks tonight. I'm Kyle and I'll be your host and terrible joke teller tonight.
