Official CBS.com Survivor: Samoa bio
page excerpts (8/27/09):
"Ben Browning is a transplanted country boy helping to run
some of the most successful bars and restaurants in Los
Angeles. A bar manager, Ben is often seen with a girl on
each arm and boldly claims he’s never been rejected.
“I’m one of those people that just get lucky for
some reason, if I want it, I do what I have to do to get
it.”
Growing up in Kirksville, Missouri, Ben’s parents
raised him with a strict set of morals and instilled in him
a strong work ethic. His parents would always be there
to whip Ben into shape whenever necessary.
Ben has worked hard for all he has in life and says
“I don’t like cry babies, I like people who work
their asses off, like people from where I’m
from.” He is also quick to admit that the one thing he
can’t stand is “whiners and wimps.”
When he is not hunting or fishing, Ben can probably be
found on his motorcycle. Despite breaking his leg in a wreck
in 2007, he is still an active rider and even part of a
motorcycle club called “WhiskyBoys.” Described
by friends as “a big hillbilly who will be rich
someday,” Ben intends to leave his mark on the game of
Survivor.
Ben is single and currently resides in Los Angeles, Calif.
His birth date is August 28th."
