The Winner of Survivor Back to Lima..............

ROB

RUDY


Congratulations Rob! You are the Sole Survivor of Survivor Back to Lima.

Rudy, you played a great game as well but you fell a bit shot. Congratulations to you too as well!

Thanks everyone who made this game possible. You are all a great and dedicated bunch and I enjoyed each and every one of you. I also want to thank my co-host Ray for being a great help and for his quality work. Confessionals will be opened tomorrow along with a reunion forum where you can put your thoughts about what you read in the confessionals.

I am Ian Rosengerber signing off from Lima, it'll be until next time. So long everyone!

[Rudy Boesch]

Congratulations Rob!

Like I said before, I am just as happy that you won. I feel no shame in coming in second to you. Best of luck to you, and everyone else in all stars. I look forward to playnig with you all again there!

[Amber Brkich]

Congrats Rob!

[Rob Mariano]

Thank you so much everybody! I have to say I am truly shocked that I won because Rudy is such a great person and he's an even better strategizer. I honestly would have been extremely happy for Rudy if he had won and I am still really happy for him to have come as close as he did. I wouldn't want this game to end any other way than by a 5-4 tiebreaking vote

Eventhough it was stressful, this is probably the most fulfilling win of my ORG career because of how great the competition was and because of how many finale's I have lost over the last few months. With the exception of a select few, everyone who made it to the merge was one of the most dominant players I have ever met in my ORG career. I can't wait to see who made All Stars!

[Dan Kay]
