Fun fact: this house, mentioned in the Penn Gazette, is where Dan Fogelman got his start as a writer.

Excerpt:
"Sophomore year Fogelman convinced 12 of these friends to... move into a gigantic house at 4012 Spruce Street. “It was the most motley crew,” he remembers. “There was a star basketball player and two football players, an Indian guy from New Jersey, and a black guy from Los Angeles.”

The house threw such large parties, they got away with charging an entry fee. After one party, no one could find the pot of money, and a fight broke out. Everyone went to bed and Fogelman—wanting to make people laugh and feel happy again after the fight—stayed up all night writing a newsletter with funny articles about all the people in the house and posted it on their doors in the morning.

“Everyone read it—and lost it, because it was so funny,” says Khosla. “He started doing it all the time, and [that’s] when Dan became a comedy writer.”

Fogelman agrees: “It was the closest direct education I got, writing things and making people laugh.”
