Survivor 50 Shockwave: Fans Say Joe Hunter Is the Castaway They Want Winning the $2 Million Prize
Survivor 50 Shockwave is building fast ahead of tonight’s finale, as fans weigh in on which castaway they believe deserves to walk away with the title of Sole Survivor.
The best thing about Survivor is that viewers at home can never truly predict who will win, because the Sole Survivor is chosen by a jury of peers and there’s no way to know how they’ll finally vote. Still, that doesn’t stop fans from having strong opinions about who they think should win based on the edit they’ve seen.
I’ve personally been on Team Aubry Bracco since the cast was announced last year. I think it’s her time to win and I will be thrilled if she does. I was also rooting for Christian Hubicki, so you can understand why I’m no longer a Jimmy Fallon fan.
Jokes aside, fans have been weighing in all season as big moves were made, blindsides sent torches home, and twist after twist changed the game. Now, in the latest poll, we can see which finalist they most want to take home the $2 million prize and the title of Sole Survivor.
P.S. If you haven’t joined the Surviving Tribal fan community on Facebook yet, what are you waiting for? We’d love to see you there!
The majority of fans are hoping Joe Hunter becomes the Sole Survivor of season 50.
While all of our players received votes in their favor, Joe definitely saw the most support, collecting 86 total votes from fans wanting him to win tonight. Full breakdown of everyone’s votes below:
Joe Hunter: 86 votes
Aubry Bracco: 46 votes
Jonathan Young: 37 votes
Rizo Velovic: 33 votes
Tiffany Ervin: 21 votes
Of course, the fan favorite is not always the winner. In fact, most of the time they’re not the winner. That’s why Survivor’s been known to do their end-of-season fan favorite vote (sponsored by Sia this year) so that the player who connected best with viewers still gets to take home something meaningful.
And while there’s no question that Joe is beloved by viewers, after a review of the entire season, it’s fair to say that among our Final Five, he may not have played the strongest game the jury will reward at the end. Because of that, he’s likely to make it to Final Tribal Council and make his case, but the odds may be against him if the jury leans toward the player with the most complete résumé.
That leaves Aubry, Tiffany, and Rizo as the most likely winners of Survivor 50. Compared with the others, these three have made moves instead of simply following directions and then claiming credit for a blindside. But we’ll have to wait until tonight to find out who wins it all!
