The Pat Benatar Fan Club

"Think where man's glory most begins and ends.
And say my glory was I had such friends."

  - William Butler Yeats

Pat asked, "Why'd you do it?"

My not-very-elegant response, "Because nobody else was doing it."

In 1995, we searched the web high and low for anything we could find about Pat. When the searches came up empty, half a dozen Internet denizens banded together and started these web pages as what became known as "the guerilla fan club".

Amazing things have happened since then. . .

The original six:

    Harold Bottomley
    Randy Craft
    Joe Cross
    George Gallagher
    Gil Lucero
    Mary Anne Wiesner
