MTV’s “Busted” Is Like “Cops” But for College Kids

image001.jpg

Growing up, every guy I knew was obsessed with the show “COPS.” High paced action, guns drawn, street fights, hookers dressed in neon leotards, down and out crack heads trying to talk the cops out of bringing them “downtown,” adrenalin fueled police brutality and, of course, the theme song.

The show was a high school boy’s wet dream.

Well now those high school boys have grown up into fine college men, but they still wanna see a little Cops action. And they can…sorta. MTV’s BUSTED takes the “COPS” formula to major college campuses across the country and busts dumb college kids doing dumb college things. You know you love the bad boys.

On Saturday, October 24th “BUSTED Live: Countdown To Lockdown” heads into the MTV studios to countdown 20 brand new infractions, including knuckleheaded misconduct from skinny-dipping to underage drinking, and backyard wrestling to marijuana possession.

Hosts Damien Fahey and Skyler Stone will countdown to the single-most shocking & never before seen offenses and CollegeCandy will be at MTV studios in Times Square to cover the whole thing. (And hopefully meet some cute boys in the process.)

Check back to CC on Monday for a full recap of the event as we saw it go down. Hopefully you won’t be seeing us on Busted any time soon…

    It’s not at just college campuses. I’ve seen a bunch of episodes filmed in my middle-of-nowhere hometown of Lusby, MD catching kids still in high school. It’s especially hilarious to us who know that the cops have absolutely nothing better to do down there than to patrol around in silence hoping for the sounds of a party.

    I just moved to Memphis and it was on in the background, I turned around and was like “Holy crap that is down the street from my apartment.”

    Yay for MTV pointing out where all the bad young people are. But it was no where near any of our campuses.
