User blog comment:CambodiaAaron/Survivor: Honduras CONTESTANT APPLICATIONS!/@comment-30509159-20170916054013

Name: Roberta Parkman

Age: ​48

Current Residence: ​San Antonio, California​

Occupation: Circus Acrobat​

Personal Claim to Fame: ​After one of my performances, one of the clowns thought it would be funny to make comments to his friends about my cleavage. Well as soon as I heard him, I proceeded to kick his ass right there in front of his friends. I then threatened his friends with the same treatment if they talked about me like that ever again and since then, no one has ever spoken about my boobs ever again.

Inspiration In Life: ​Definitely my wife Diane. She is just such an amazing person. She never lets anything get her down and she has been my rock through all the hard times. She lives life to the fullest and she's allowed me to do the same while still enjoying life at the same time.

Hobbies:

3 Words to Describe You: 

Survivor Contestant you are most like: I think I'm a mix of Lydia Morales and Jasmine Neely. Like Lydia, we were both trying to have fun with our tribe mates and I will be the first to admit that I can act a little silly at times. She was also a well liked individual and was loyal to those who were loyal to her. But like Jasmine, I'm not afraid of telling someone how it is if they insult me or think they're better than me.

Reason for Competing: I want to show America that even though I'm approaching my golden years, that I still have what it takes to win the game. I also want to show my kids that their mom isn't some old fuddy duddy who will end up watching soap operas and reading romance novels when she's older.

Why will your contestant win?: ​Roberta plans to be herself. If people like her for who she is, then she'll align with them. If people don't appreciate her eccentric personality, she'll be able to use it as a way to lower her threat status and glide on by to the end. She's not afraid to make moves and she's certainly not afraid to make enemies in the game. She is ready and willing to bond with her tribe mates, and she believes that her physical abilities as an acrobat will help her in challenges and around camp so that her tribe will see her as an asset to them but not so much that she becomes a physical threat.
