Apartments.com yesterday announced the winners of its fourth annual Roommate of the Year contest. This year's grand prize, including a year's rent plus $10,000, goes to Dan Bakst of Tampa, Florida.
Mr. Bakst's video, entitled "The All-Star Roommate Musical," stood out in the way that it "wove a musical tale of his roommate talents, ultimately bringing his jaded roommate around to the conclusion that having Dan as a real roommate is better than having a robot created at home," impressing judges and the voting public.
You can view the grand-prize video as well as the four runner-up videos (which earned entrants $500 each) by visiting roommateoftheyear.com.
