Rome Cooney was one of Survivor 47's loudest forces — a self-styled mastermind on the Lavo tribe who talked a relentless big game, hunted aggressively for idols, and never doubted for a second that he was the smartest player on the beach. He backed the bravado with real idol-finding hustle.
But the swagger painted an enormous target, and the rest of the game moved to clip him in thirteenth before his schemes could land. A brash, entertaining player whose confidence outran his control of the board.
