Boston Rob Is Back

062607_rob_mariano.JPGThe original Boston reality television star, Boston Rob Mariano, is back with his own reality-tv show, Tontine.

The game revolves around keys, with the theme "possession is everything." Each one of 15 contestants will receive a key and will go through a series of challenges until one person winds up with all 15 keys. Since Mariano is a vet of Survivor and The Amazing Race, we expect that Tontine will incorporate characteristics of the two.

The idea is interesting, but the cash prize of $10 million - which is the biggest in reality-show history - sounds even better.

Rob will be bringing the Tontine auditions to Boston on July 21 and July 22 at Faneuil Hall from 10am to 6pm. The eligibility requirements look pretty straightforward, but filming will last four months, and anyone who auditions will need a US passport. Given the passport mess, that might be the toughest requirement of all.

You can find out even more information in the official Tontine website.
