Bobby Jon Drinkard Biography (Courtesy Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Bobby Jon Drinkard (born May 10, 1977) was a contestant on Survivor: Palau and Survivor: Guatemala. Bobby Jon is perhaps best known for being intensely competitive in challenges, which was presented on the show as being comically at odds with his normally polite and mild-mannered demeanor.

Survivor: Palau

In Survivor: Palau, Bobby Jon was a member of the ill-fated Ulong tribe. He was third contestant in Survivor: Palau to be eliminated without being voted out, and the 8th person to be eliminated without being voted out since Survivor's start in 2000.

As of April 7, 2005, for the first time ever there was one person left in the Ulong tribe (Stephenie LaGrossa), after Ulong lost every single immunity challenge since the start of the show. When it was down to Bobby Jon and Stephenie, they went into an immunity challenge against Koror and lost for the eighth time. Because there were only two survivors left, when Ulong went to tribal council, Bobby Jon and Stephenie had to compete in a fire-building contest. Bobby Jon was eliminated because he wasn't fast enough. When he brought his torch to Jeff Probst to be snuffed, Probst said, "The tribe has definitely NOT spoken. Nonetheless, it's time for you go."

Survivor: Guatemala

Bobby Jon and Stephenie LaGrossa were invited back as contestants on Survivor: Guatemala. He was the 11th person voted off, becoming the first member of the jury; a point he always wanted to reach.

During this season, he and fellow competitor Jamie Newton engaged in a rivalry in their opposing tribes' challenges and during the individual immunity challenges. The two seemed to bury the hatchet when they were both on the jury, and are reportedly now good friends.
