Quote 1

"The price of celebrity," says Beetee. "We were targeted from both sides. The Capitol killed the victors they suspected of being rebels. The rebels killed those thought to be allied with the Capitol." (26.41)

That's what happens to the other victors, who were unlucky enough to be caught in between the rebels and the Capitol, and survived the Games and the Quell only to be crushed in the revolutionary war that followed.
