Tributes
The male tribute during the 74th Hunger Games died during the bloodbath at the Cornucopia. Katniss nicknamed the female tribute "Foxface". She survived by stealing food from other tributes in order to keep herself alive, as well as her quick, witty decisions. Ironically, it was her strategy for survival that eventually killed her. She stole some berries from Peeta's collection. Sadly, she mistakenly ate the berries, which were Nightlock. She placed 4th out of 24. Katniss notes that if they were to give out a test, Foxface would be the smartest by a mile.

The tributes during the 75th Hunger Games were both past victors. The male was an alcoholic and vomited on the sword-fighting arena during training. The female didn't even show up to training. In the arena, the male is killed at the bloodbath at the Cornucopia by Finnick. He placed 24th out of 24. The female lived slightly longer. She died on the second day either due to the tsunami or the mutts.

Trivia

 * In the last two Hunger Games, both males were killed in the bloodbath but both females survived the bloodbath, the opposite of District 10.
 * District 5 has a low amount of tessera because of its low population.
