Two-Time Survivor Winner Tony Vlachos To Appear at Somerset Patriots Game in May

The Somerset Patriots will host Survivor 50 Night with Tony Vlachos as the featured guest at TD Bank Ballpark on Friday, May 1. The event celebrates the CBS reality series and its 50th season.

Tony Vlachos will take part in a pre-game Q&A session on the field. He'll throw out a ceremonial first pitch. Fans can meet him on the main concourse for pictures during the game, according to Patch.com.

The Jersey City police officer won Survivor twice. He took home the title in the show's 28th season, Survivor: Cagayan. His second victory came in the 40th season, Survivor: Winners at War. He also competed in Survivor: Game Changers and Australian Survivor: Australia V The World.

Host Jeff Probst considers Vlachos one of the top players in the show's history. Why? His strategic gameplay and ability to manipulate other contestants earned him this recognition.

The CBS reality series premiered in May 2000. The 50th season began on Feb. 25 and will run into May.

Fans attending can purchase a themed neck scarf ticket bundle for $25. The bundle includes a choice of either a red or blue scarf.

The Patriots, the New York Yankees' Double-A affiliate, will face the Portland Sea Dogs at 6:35 p.m. The Sea Dogs serve as the Boston Red Sox affiliate.
