Want to be featured on a TV show and get a new bathroom?

Prepare to grovel.

Licensed contractor Matt Muenster of DIY's "Bath Crashers" will be at the Mall of America Tuesday, Dec. 4 to hear pitches from homeowners who are desperate to have the show's theme do a makeover.

Level one east doors will open at 5:30 a.m. for the first 300 homeowners who will get a chance to plead their cases at the Mall's Rotunda. Be sure to bring photos of your rotten bathrooms to share with the crew. The "winner" will be featured in an upcoming program.

The show airs at 9:30 p.m. Mondays.
