Ten contestants entered the new Atlanta house over the course of opening day. Bam Margera replaced Sam Hyde on-site, laying out four house rules and pulling each fish aside for a one-on-one introduction. Victoria arrived first with a contraband vape and kratom; Jet and Ben rummaged her bags before she made it to the dorm. Bingo and Bongo arrived together as a single paired contestant.
