Bootchasers Launch New AirBnB App for Desperate Freshmen Cadets
Bootchasers at Texas A&M University recently launched a new AirBnB-style app for desperate freshmen in the Corps of Cadets. The release of the new app has been highly anticipated, as it offers freshmen cadets a weekend reprieve from the misery of living on the Quad, while also allowing bootchasers to gain service hours by simply opening their homes to these weary refugees.
After logging in with their NetID to verify their freshman status, cadets can access numerous listings ranging from an unoccupied bedroom in an off-campus apartment to the floor of a dorm closet. The most popular listings so far are those with doors that lock and walls made from materials other than cinder blocks.
“I’m honestly just happy to have a place where the screams of the damned don’t wake me up at 5:30 a.m. every morning,” said Zach Seaworth, a freshman cadet and frequent user of the app. “Each day that I don’t bolt upright in my rack at the slightest sound of a boot scuffing outside my door is a great one.”
Due to the success of the app, most incidents involving drunken upperclassmen kicking in the doors of freshmen cadets now occur exclusively on Thursday nights.
