‘Survivor 40: Winners at War’: Fans Predict Tyson Won’t be Wearing Pants During the Virtual Reunion Show

In a CBS press release, viewers found out that the 'Survivor: Winners at War' Season finale reunion will be virtual instead of in a studio. Fans have some strong predictions about Tyson Apostol and a few other castaways antics during the show.

Since Survivor: Winners at War began airing on Feb. 12, 2020, many things have changed. On March 19, 2020, all gatherings were banned in the state of California due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. 

Many fans were wondering what this means for the live reunion show and vote reveal for Survivor Season 40. CBS finally announced on April 14, 2020, that the reunion show would be held virtually, and fans are predicting ridiculous antics from at least Tyson Apostol and Tony Vlachos.
