Mike Sorrentino has been making plenty of friends in prison during his first three months at a correctional institution in New York state, including Frye Festival's Billy McFarland. Scroll through for all the details.
As OK! readers know, Mike, 36, is currently serving eight months for tax evasion and has been at Otisville Federal Correctional Institution since January, which has previously been dubbed as one of "America's cushiest prisons," according to Forbes.
Nicole Polizzi aka Snooki even went as far to say that Mike is "having the time of his life," while at the prison, adding that he spends his time playing Bingo and helping people recover.
While Vinny Guadagnino and DJ Pauly D explained that their castmate's statement may be "a bit extreme," in a recent interview with SiriusXM's The Jenny McCarthy Show, they did say that Mike is not spending hours on end in a cell like a traditional prison. "There's no bars, there's not that many people," Pauly D, 38, said. "It's like a vacation from your life."
