'The Real Beantown' Brings the Search for the Next Snooki to Boston →
If you’ve been looking for the chance to channel your inner Masshole, Badaddy Productions is looking for you.
This looks awesome, really. And entirely legitimate.
At this time, mystery surrounds the show: There is no official word yet on when filming will begin, MTV hasn’t made any sort of statement about the show, and a Google search for Badaddy Productions returns no company website or Wikipedia page. The one hint I could find, a Badaddy Facebook page, has very few “likes” and no posts.
While certainly there is some allure to the idea of a show that is going to try to make going out in Faneuil Hall look like fun, one look at the application would make any true Bostonian’s stomach turn. It starts out innocently enough — “Southie, Charlestown, Dorcestor…. It’s some of the only real neighborhoods left in Boston, and it’s all you. [sic]” — but quickly takes a turn for the worst: “You down whiskey, try to run out the yuppies, handle your own business and don’t take [anything] from no one. You know your B’s and C’s, live for the Pats and Sox, and not for nothin’, but your BAC is your badge of honor.”
What is BAC? Blood Alcohol Content? Boston Architectural College?
