‘Screech’ Hopes to Be Saved by the T-Shirt
Dustin Diamond, ‘Screech’ on TV’s ‘Saved by the Bell,’ selling T-shirts to save his house in Wis.
MILWAUKEE, Jun. 17, 2006
"If the public didn’t care, I as an entertainer wouldn’t have been a success," he said.
Diamond, 29, is trying to sell nearly 30,000 shirts _ at $15 or $20 (autographed) each _ to supplement the income he makes as a standup comic so he doesn’t have to move from his Port Washington home, about 25 miles north of Milwaukee.
The T-shirt has a photo of Diamond holding a sign that says, "Save My House." The back of the shirt reads, "I paid $15.00 to save Screeech’s house." The third "e" was added to get around copyright laws, he said.
He’s selling the shirts on his Web site: http://www.getdshirts.com.
The foreclosure order was filed last month in Ozaukee County Circuit Court.
