S30: Dan Foley (Blue Collar-Escameca)
« on: January 21, 2015, 11:57:35 AM »
Dan Foley



Name (Age): Dan Foley, 47
Tribe Designation: Blue Collar (Escameca)
Current Residence: Gorham, Maine
Occupation: Postal Worker
Personal Claim to Fame: I had a terrible fear of heights so I faced it head on. I went on my first airplane ride…and jumped out at 13,000 feet. Heights don’t really bother me anymore.
Inspiration in Life: My Dad, Phil Foley. Now that I am an adult, I look back on the things my Dad did for my family (my siblings, my mom and myself) and I realize what kind of sacrifices he made for us. Having been one of the four kids that my parents adopted, I acknowledge even more the love that he gave all of us growing up and continues to give every day.
Hobbies: Anything with my wife, Erin, disc golf and working on my properties.
What is your favorite sport? If I’m watching, Football, and if I’m playing, disc golf.
Pet Peeves: People who drive too slow in the fast lane and won’t get out of the way.
3 Words to Describe You: Opinionated, adventurous and gregarious.
If You Could Have 3 Things on The Island What Would They Be and Why? 1. A deck of cards to help pass the time 2. A picture of my family to remind me of what’s waiting for me 3. Some disc golf discs to help bond with my tribe mates and to possibly use to hunt
SURVIVOR Contestant You Are Most Like: I think I have Stephenie’s competitive spirit, Tony’s cunning and scheming gameplay, and Rupert’s strength, love of family and stunning good looks.
Reason for Being on SURVIVOR: To claim my rightful place amongst the elite winners of Survivor! Second, to challenge myself in the greatest psychological and sociological challenge ever!
Why You’ll “Survive” SURVIVOR: Obviously, any challenge that involves a lot of running will not be in my “wheelhouse,” but anything involving gross food eating, strength, swimming, puzzles or balance, I’ll be in it to the end. As for the social game, I am a world class “schmooze” artist. I can charm my way out of almost anything.
Why Will You Be the Sole SURVIVOR: As a landlord, I am excellent at reading people and controlling some pretty out of control situations. As an Irishman, I have a glorious stubborn streak and I hate to lose. As a technician, I have a very analytical mind so I’ll be great at puzzles. I’m also very good with my hands so I’ll be a big help around camp. I am the entire package. Also, I am not above taking the rules of fair play in a spirited competition and grinding them to dust beneath my heel.

Now he really is a superfan! I see him going early or being an unexpected threat to go deep!

I'm leaning towards early...he seems like he may be a dead weight on Blue Collar, especially if he's too loud or obnoxious. Who knows though, maybe they'll like that!

He was a waste of space both literally and figuratively. I cheered when Carolyn played her Idol TBH.

And look at this interview:

Dan sucks! He said in the initial interviews "you will remember me!!" Everything he did was to get attention and airtime. He probably just saw this show as a way out of his miserable job. I doubt there were many genuine things he said or did...even his reactions were over the top. I hope he is forgotten and never mentioned again in relation to this show.

Often (but certainly not always) it was not the things he said, but the way he said them, that rubbed people the wrong way.

I'm still mad at the fact that Carolyn was robbed from the win PLUS not appearing on SC.

I think erm, whoever who won (can't even remember his name) just got a good edit cause HE WON? :stare )-**

Otherwise, who remembers him going against an agreement to bid for the letter then backing out? And pissing Dan and Carolyn!

Dan's roast on the live show was absolutely beautiful! He deserved every piece of it....news flash when you apply 30 times to be on the show, THEY DON'T WANT YOU.

Rodney I would actually take back in a future season for entertainment; Dan I'm not a fan of, even in a Villains tribe. He would just be the next Randy and get voted off at their first tribal.

But I loved Randy :( His gameplay was pretty crap, though, and that's why he didn't do anything well on HvV.

Randy was great for entertainment value on Gabon, but he certainly didn't do anything on HvV unfortunately. On the other hand, I don't think Dan was great for entertainment or for anything else on this season, so I really have no need to see him again.

Dan was certainly an odd character to watch in Worlds Apart but I don't think he can provide any good entertainment a second time around.

^Mostly that, yeah. So many better villains for an HvV season. And he's certainly not going to be production's "Fav" for FvF III.

Exactly. Would be maddening to see him again, but if he came back and was the first boot, that would be quite worthwhile.

Neh. The 20 spots are very very precious and shouldn't be wasted on creatures like Dan. I'll rather watch Francesqua eliminated first thrice in a row.

The only reason he wasn't like the most horrifying person on earth is because the whole Escameca was horrifying, and Will exists. If Dan was on another season, his insanity would stand out a lot more. :lol:

If CBS gives him another chance I'll be shocked.

CBS should put all the annoying people on one season (Dan, Will, Rodney, Brandon Hantz, Philip, Naonka etc) and then do a Battle Royale season. Do us viewers good and will be fun to watch... #justsaying
