Walldaddy.com Seeks Worst College Living Space

Walldaddy.com, the leading online source for posters, calendars, and decor prints, is holding a national contest to determine the world's worst college-student domiciles for 2007.

(PRWEB) September 8, 2007 -- Walldaddy.com, the leading online source for posters, calendars, and decor prints, is holding a national contest to determine the world's worst college-student domiciles for 2007.

If someone lives in a totally stank, fugly and depressing dorm or apartment, Walldaddy.com wants to help! We can't sponsor a major makeover, (or buy you a brand spanking new off-campus condo) but Walldaddy.com can show how posters, calendars, and decor prints are THE most cost-conscious and effective decorating measures out there. It's a real lipstick-on-a-pig type deal.

Dorm rooms with unpainted cement walls, furniture styles so outdated they aren't even retro-cool, walls with more plaster patches than actual drywall, I mean, even the vandalism was old and tired, what with 'class of' and initials carvings from the early 80's. We felt obligated to get these stories out in the open.
The contest is open to full-time college students who live on or off campus. The contest begins on September 4th and runs throughout the month. For more information (and to see pics of the latest entries) go to:

The idea for the contest grew out of Walldaddy's informal market research. "The pics we were getting from our customers were eye-popping," said Ric Starost, E-Business Manager. Walldaddy.com. "Dorm rooms with unpainted cement walls, furniture styles so outdated they aren't even retro-cool, walls with more plaster patches than actual drywall, I mean, even the vandalism was old and tired, what with 'class of' and initials carvings from the early 80's. We felt obligated to get these stories out in the open."

To enter visit http://www.walldaddy.com/space.html and simply upload pics of the nastiness.

The winner's personal information won't be publicized (unless they want it to be) in fact, they don't even need to give it to us - to enter all we need is the pic, email contact info, and name of college or university attended.

We are looking for uniquely bad design, terrible disrepair, horrible color schemes, ridiculously ugly bolted-down dorm furniture, and prison-like space considerations. Consider the above attributes before entering, and please, DON'T upload pics of run-of-the-mill basic typical college socks-and-underwear-on-the-floor student slobbery.

At the end of the month, Walldaddy.com's panel of college decorating experts will select the top three worst rooms -- whose inhabitant's suffering Walldaddy.com will end by providing them with Walldaddy.com gift cards worth $300!
