Sure there’s a lot of negatives to being the victim of a house fire, but for Alex Maroshek, there might be an upside too. The University of South Carolina student woke up to a loud crash. When he opened his bedroom door, to his astonishment, he found his ceiling was on the floor, covered in flames.
Maroshek’s “AHHH! FIRE!” screaming woke up his roommates who were then able to escape the fire.
He grabbed his cell phone and luckily for viewers, his bathrobe and high tailed it out of there. In an interview with Palmetto Public Record, he reenacted the events with a Will Ferrell-esque style and gave people a refresher course on college lingo.
When asked, “What do you think when you open your door and there’s fire everywhere?” he replied, “This is just not frat at all.”
While this is no Antoine Dodson, It’s only a matter of time before offtopic, reddit and 4chan users start paste his image all over the net, claiming everything from crabs, to finals, to Microsoft surfaces being #NotFratAtAll.
As far as having your apartment burn down, everyone getting out safe and becoming internet famous in the process, that’s kinda frat.
