Millions Participate In Cuban Version Of Survivor

HAVANA, CUBA–Inspired by the hit CBS show Survivor, Cuba’s 11 million citizens are participating in their own version of the popular island-survival game. “I hope very much to make it to next week,” said contestant Livan Ordonez, eating a rat as part of a “Starvation-Immunity Challenge” during last Wednesday’s episode. “If I do not survive, who will provide for the Ordonez Tribe?” Under the somewhat altered rules for Cuban Survivor, contestants who fail to remain on the island are declared the winners.
