Online Reality Show Spinoff
In 2007, ABC Family created a website www.virtualrush.com that was to be used in conjunction with the Greek television series. The site was maintained during the first two seasons, in which the users of the site competed in a wide variety of contests in order to become an extra on the show. During the first season of the contest, a five part online reality series called Rush*d followed the six finalists that were selected by ABC Family staff from their hometowns and college campuses to Los Angeles.
The Finalists:
- Chrissy Celotto – Van Wilder
- Luke Martin – IvoryRockstar
- Nate McGee – NJMCGEE
- Jay Stephens – ChiKappaDelta
- Jenna Walsh – Jenziebabe
- Laura Wise – Whitecup
In the fifth episode of Rush'd, Laura Wise was announced the winner of the contest.
In season two of Virtual Rush, Tom Kruszewski – Puckstopper35, was announced as the winner of the second and final contest. Following the second season the website was rendered inert.
