Get to know Sue Smey
Sue Smey's own answers from the pre-game cast profile CBS published before the season aired.
- Hobbies
- Racket ball, tennis, snow skiing, ice skating, building stone fireplaces, making mantles or wood columns.
- Pet peeves
- "One-uppers," people who talk too much about stuff that no one cares about (can't read the room), energy drainers. People who are only negative and complain all the time.
- Inspiration
- My uncle. I grew up in a very dysfunctional environment. He always took the time to help me see it wasn't my fault. He showed me pure, unconditional love.
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.
