Trivia

• Gitanos was the first tribe to design their flag vertically as opposed to horizontally. Bruce, an art teacher by profession, led the creation of the flag.
• Gitanos and Huyopa are the longest-lasting merged tribes, being in existence for 23 days.
• Gitanos is the first merged tribe to witness a medical evacuation.
• Each of the final four castaways were from a different starting tribe: Aras from Viveros, Danielle from Bayoneta, Cirie from Casaya, and Terry from La Mina
  • Each of the final four would all eventually return in future seasons, making Gitanos one of three merged tribes to have its final four return in future seasons. Rattana and Solarrion are the other merged tribes with its final four to return in future seasons.
