Papa Smurf Update!
Well, he’s little, he’s blue, he’s the leader of… wait. Wrong blog! All kidding aside, I of course mean Gary Stritesky, dubbed Papa Smurf by the Moto Tribe from day one. Our pals at Survivor Fever have an interview with the guy who had to leave the game due to a sever amount of pain and disorientation.
The good news is that he’s doing just fine - big booming jovial voice and all. Turns out all those bug bites were the culprit - he had an allergic reaction to the toxins in his body from the thousands of bites he suffered. Guess they should have painted the floor earlier! Fortunately they diagnosed him quickly, and while he’s doing press right now, he’s looking forward to going home and driving his school bus route again.
But ya’ll want the important stuff, right? Right! Here ya go:
During one challenge, you had to eat pig snouts. How’d they taste?
We had them when we were kids. You’d take the head and tail and ears, chop it all up, put it in a gel, chill it and put vinegar on it. So that was a cakewalk for me.Putting aside any insider knowledge you might have, do you have any personal favorites to win the $1 million?
You know, I got along with a lot of them really well. There’s only a couple I might not have beers with now. It would be a toss-up, to be honest. There’s about a dozen or so I could see winning.
