SURVIVOR Redemption Island Winner/Reality Legend "Boston" Rob Mariano

Just a few days ago, I read online that my favorite SURVIVOR castaway ever, Boston Rob, would be at Mohegan Sun to promote an Amazing Race casting call. I have always had very good luck with events at Mohegan, so I knew if I could make it, I would have a very good shot.

I had ordered photos earlier in the morning for him, but when I got to the store, their photo printer wasn't working, and I literally spent an hour there getting my photos. Needless to say, I will never go back to that store again, and this was after going into work 2 hours early just to get out in time to get to the event.

Anyway, I got to Mohegan at about 4:55 for the 5:00 signing, and it was already underway. There was a decent line, but a much bigger one for the casting call that had going on all afternoon.

I was really excited to know that I would definitely be meeting Boston Rob, and as far as SURVIVOR successes go, this is one of the biggest ones that is obtainable. Rob has been on 4 seasons of the show, which happens to be one of my favorite shows ever, and he won in his 4th try. As any regular viewers know, Rob is an avid Red Sox fan, and became known as "Boston Rob" because of his Red Sox cap.

Also, Rob and his wife Amber, whom he met on the show, and who beat him, are the only married couple in the world in which both members have won a season of SURVIVOR.

Rob was quiet, but really nice. He signed everything I had, and even gave me one of the stock photos that the event provided.

As always, I will update the entry when Mohegan Sun releases the photos from the event.
