Get to know Domenick Abbate

Domenick Abbate's own answers from the pre-game cast profile CBS published before the season aired.

Hobbies: Crossfit, poker, and skiing.
Pet peeves: Fake people, small talk at parties, and judgmental people who are convinced they are better than me.
Inspiration: My father. He raised nine kids on a construction salary, taught his boys to be men and his daughters to be ladies.
Luxury item: A photo of my wife, a picture of my rugrats because they're awesome, and an antihistamine, which I will spike in somebody's drinking water if they are relentlessly annoying me and/or the group on the island.

Alliances fans have named

Survivor never names an alliance on screen. These names, and who counts as a member, are how the fan community records the game rather than an official record of it.
