    Sophi Balerdi has a paid partnership with iHop. This is pretty funny.
    RIZGOD and Sav are in it as well. Good for Sophi for cashing in on her Survivor appearance.

    I saw that yesterday. It was funny but also strange to see them doing
    an ad while the show is still going. (Yeah, it's been months for them
    but not for us.)

    Sophi also did something about a month ago with Applebee's that tied in
    with the episode where Applebee's was part of the reward. The iHop
    partnership seems out of the blue unless they're part of a future
    reward. That would be very strange, especially if Rizo ends up winning
    the season. lol

    I thought that was all right. It's really Sophi's ad, and she's not
    part of the current season. Sav and Rizo are really just lending their
    faces without saying much.

    Yeah, I guess some people could take this as a sign Rizo probably didn't
    win S50 - on the theory that he probably wouldn't bother to make the ad
    if he knew he had already won $2 million. But out of friendship to
    Sophi, I could see him still doing it, especially if she asked him.

    Why would a winner turn down a chance to make more money?

    Cause it couldn't be that much. That's why either way he may have done
    it more as a favor than because he expected to make much from it.
