Screech Needs Your Help
Well, if you ever wanted a Screech t-shirt, here’s your chance.
Actor Dustin Diamond, who played the Lisa-crazed goof on “Saved by the Bell” has pleaded online for his fans to help him raise $250,000 to save his Port Washington, Wisc. house from foreclosure, CBC reports.
The actor says for a donation of $15-20, the donor will get a shirt that says “I paid $15.00 to save Screeech’s house.” For $20, the shirt will be autographed. Diamond estimates in order to raise the money needed he’ll have to sell at least 30,000 shirts.
On his website the actor explained the situation, “During the past years, the land around me has developed for the better and my property value went way up. Now that the house is worth a lot more, [the owners] want it back. Knowing my credit is bad, getting a straight mortgage would take some time. I received a letter stating that I had 30 days to pay $250,000 or get out. I was not thrilled.”
Diamond filed for bankruptcy in 2001 and has been working as a stand up comic for the last few years.
