Santarossa has a well-stocked fridge, bunk bed, PlayStation 3, and laptop, and will get $2,600 for his trouble, along with the contents of the ball and three bags full of sports gear. “I had a bit of trouble at the start – it’s a bit difficult having people peer in through the windows 24-seven,” he said. “But it’s a pretty easy life.
