“Real World” Denver cast member Tyree sounds like a pretty friendly guy.

– A reader anonymously sent us the phone number for “The Real World” house at 1920 Market St. in LoDo a few days ago so, naturally, I called to see if I could talk to any of the cast members before they permanently leave town in the next couple days. Of course, I wasn’t expecting much (all the legal waivers MTV’s had them sign prevents them to talking to the press) but they were polite, at least…

– When I phoned the house around 4 p.m. today it rang once then prompted me to press “5″ if I accepted the fact that it would be recorded for television broadcast. A polite-sounding guy (Alex, maybe?) answered after another couple rings. I decided to ask for cast member Tyree, since he seems to have the most self-promoting potential and therefore willingness to talk to a reporter.

– Tyree got on after a couple minutes and I introduced myself as being from The Denver Post. “Since you guys are leaving I was wondering if you wanted to comment on your impressions of Denver?” I said to him. “Is there anything you’d like to say, any experiences you’ve had that you want to talk about?” He paused for a second then said, sounding slightly confused, “Sorry, I really can’t talk about that.”

– I told him I had gotten the number from an anonymous e-mail, which prompted him to ask, “Wait, who is this?” I told him my name and he said, “Oh… the guy from GetRealDenver… you’re the one who started all this mess!” He didn’t sound upset — bemused maybe. An automated voice again reminded me that the call was being taped for broadcast, and to press “5″ again to continue.

– I would have asked Tyree what “mess” he was referring to but I sensed him about to hang up, so I thanked him for his time and let him be. Nothing too exciting, I know, but I thought I’d at least give it a try while they were still around…
