What may be the most elaborate joke from Hearts of Reality or a foretelling of what’s to come, even more winners of Survivor are baiting fans with tweets.
With a bunch of Survivor winners coming together for a good cause at Hearts of Reality last week, there was a lot of social media speculation that there would be an all-winners season of Survivor in the future. We even covered it (mostly) in jest last week, but with the official casting team and Jeff Probst offering casting tips just for season 39, speculation is running rampant.
It doesn’t help that the Survivor community has a bunch of jokesters amongst their winners, as we’ve seen in recent days that even more potential returnees are teasing an all-winners season on social media. The most surprising was a tweet from Redemption Island winner Boston Rob Mariano, which has since been deleted.
He essential teased a costly phone situation and being dependent on technology, surmising that it “might b time for another spin on that island!” That tweet was posted earlier this morning, too, meaning he was quick to hit the delete button on it. Tyson Apostol, Blood vs. Water’s winner, even teased him about also getting a call, and even teased Rob Cesternino on their News AF show.
For what it’s worth, both winners have an excellent rapport with each other, having played on the same season together and even compete on the felt tables in poker over the years at events like Poker Night in America and Run it Up Reno. On the other hand, I’m sure Jeff Probst and CBS aren’t big fans of their players joking around about a future season of the show if they end up doing it, hence the tweets being deleted.
It will be an ongoing saga until Survivor season 39 and 40 are officially filmed, and players are either absent on social media or living it up away from the island.
