Erik

Erik Cardona (28)
Hometown: Ontario, Calif
Occupation: Bartender

Proud womanizer, Erik claims that he can date four to five women at the same time without any issues. He has no qualms about chasing after a taken woman (as long as she is not married) just for the fun of the chase. He says, “There’s nothing sweeter than taking another man’s goods.” His top hobby is skirt chasing. Even though he can be found chasing multiple women at once, he says that he does have a special female in his life … his dog, Adrian.

Erik holds two degrees from Pepperdine University in Psychology and Sociology but has chosen a career as a bartender. When asked why he has chosen that specific career route, he explains that he likes waking up around 10:00 a.m. and running on the beach instead of being stuck pencil-pushing in a cubicle. He says that he enjoys life while the “sell-outs” do not.

He greatly admires his father because he has sacrificed everything in life for him. In raising him, Erik observed his father’s mental and physical strength as well as endurance for raising an active boy. He feels that his father’s example has provided him with tools that will help him win this game. In addition to his father’s influence, Erik is self-motivated by his competitive nature and desire to prove to himself that he has what it takes to be the next Sole Survivor.

Currently, Erik resides in Los Angeles, Calif. His birth date is April 13th.

I think that this one might be the villain. Either that or he's just amazingly full of himself.

I hate to start off not liking someone, but the skirt chaser guys are the most annoying, imo.

I agree. I think for him it's all about the chase. (a love them and leave them type guy)
I can't see him able to leave the women alone, either, which might be his downfall.

from his picture I am shocked 5 women at one time would want him.

He spells his name with a K,that always spells trouble

I think he will do well, sociology and psychology should give him insight and make him a good people person, and good at reading people

Yikes! I wanted to like him since Jeff likes him. -- Erik is a guy that, I actually wouldn't mind seeing Erik win. I like him, there's something about Erik that I root for. I think he's a scrapper. I don't think that guy would ever think of giving up but I do think he will double-cross as soon as he has to.

I know these are really Jeff's 1st impression after seeing them in one episode or so. But I hope he doesn't win!

If I were his dad I'd be disappointed. All his dad's sacrifice is to for him to win this game and keep living like a self-indulging, self-insinuated god's gift to women??

I hope many, many women will see and know to stay far, far away from him from now on!

Something I like about Erik is how every tribal council he is looking directly at the remaining players as he comes in to take his seat. Most of the rest of the jury barely glances that direction as they come in.

LOL, Erik was wearing Brett's t-shirt at last night's (first) tribal. Love that Erik finds ways to send messages to the remaining players and the viewers even though he's out of the game. Too bad he got booted so soon.

how did Erik get Brett's shirt? Brett didn't wear that in the game did he? So Erik must have gotten it out of Erik's luggage which is awaiting him at Ponderosa????

Agree there are limited possibilities Bon. My first guess is as you stated, that he took it from Brett's luggage. The other possibility (intriguing, but less likely) is that Erik and Brett knew each other before the game. Both attended Pepperdine and both live in LA. Brett makes and sells those t-shirts (see Brett's bio), so perhaps Erik had one of his own before the game. FYI, there have been some rumors that Brett and Laura knew each other pre-game also. Casting for Survivor is so shady these days it's difficult to know for sure. I tend to think the shirt came from Brett's luggage. Either way, I dig that Erik wore it to tribal as a shout out to Brett.

yes all very shady!! I do like the shout out... but dang I wish it had been a different shirt...

We heard Shambo state that TPTB told them to bring X shirts, and X shorts and 6 bathing suits... I bet that was Brett's "yellow" shirt in case he was put on the Yellow tribe.

Laura said during her exit interview at Reality TV World, that when they arrived she realized that she had seen Brett at her church. So that's how/why she bonded so strongly with him. Also, it turned out that Brett was telling Laura EVERYTHING being said in the Galu Guys alliance.
