verb
- Beginning in about 1947, I became aware of the verb "brody," which means to slide around a corner in your car at high speed. "He brodied the corner." These days we'd call it a power slide or a 4-wheel drift.
Proof: In the 1940s and 1950s, boys and young men attached a brody knob to the steering wheel, allowing them to turn the wheel quickly, which you need to do when you are brodying.
Google "brody knob" and you will see photos.Last edited on Jul 10 2016. Submitted by Anonymous on Jul 10 2016.
