Yeah, I’m absolutely not kidding you on this one. Within the walls of a bathroom at Purchase College in New York, a dedicated shrine to Danny DeVito exists, and nobody quite knows why.

The shrine was originally tweeted at DeVito in October, but it was specified as “a secret room” and not, you know, a cavernous easter egg behind the bathroom wall.

But this week, more students at Purchase found the hidden shrine, and have since added to the alter of DeVito. One student showed the way to get into the weird, dark, sacred space, but literally removing a paper towel dispenser unit off the wall in an undisclosed bathroom.

This is some high-level Room Of Requirement bullshit, people. Imagine trying to dry your hands in the bathroom at uni and suddenly you’ve uncovered an entire shrine to Frank from It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia? Fucks sake, my uni just had ducks that chased you around and one building that was so deeply labyrinthian that I once feared I was going to die in there.
Also what the fuck how are the walls in this place so cavernous? Why is there an entire expanse behind a bathroom wall that is big enough to fit MULTIPLE people very comfortably inside it? What in ever-loving Christ is going on?
Ok here’s a video of how fuckin’ elaborate the shrine has gotten, and how it encourages those who stumble upon the hidden altar to leave an offering to “Danny DeVito, the Patron Saint of the Trashmen.”
I’m not too sure if you have to pay the troll toll, but it might be best to take that just in case.

If you’re an Always Sunny… aficionado, you’ll know that The Trashman is DeVito/Frank’s wrestling character from season five’s episode, The Gang Wrestles For The Troops. His special moves include throwing trash cans at people, throwing trash all over the ring, and also eating the trash. It’s not clear if the custom to leave an offering of (presumably trash) at the shrine is for him to eat, but god I love it nonetheless.
Viva la trashman. Viva la Danny DeVito.
