In Red Dead Redemption 2, players come up with crazy things to pass the time or entertain their fellow players. Just like a cowboy who recently wanted to carry his stew from Valentine to Saint Denis in Red Dead Online. His story ended tragically, but it is currently entertaining the masses on RDR-Reddit.
What does the player want with the stew? In Red Dead Online, player RJskillz92 recently had an incredibly silly idea: he wanted to carry a bowl of stew from his camp in Valentine to Saint Denis – on foot. Fortunately, this crazy cowboy captured his journey in a video.
In just over 3 minutes, viewers can follow his odyssey, which is unexpectedly thrilling. The player follows the train tracks, wanders through train tunnels, and is not deterred by wind and weather.

How does his journey end? RJskillz92 makes it quite far on his journey. In between, he even meets other players who fortunately let him pass peacefully. This is unfortunately not a given in Red Dead Online, especially at the start of the online mode.
In the end, only sheer coincidence derails him from his goal: after he has already passed the Emerald Ranch and continues on for a while, there is a scene where a small deer appears around the corner. Of course, the wild animal heads straight for the poor cowboy and bumps into him.

The character then drops the stew. Hours of wandering around were in vain. The character itself seems to look bewildered.
What does the community think of it? The wild journey of a cowboy with his stew is currently captivating players on RDR-Reddit. The post has racked up 20,000 upvotes in just three days.
And the story of the stew is far from over: a reader asked RJskillz92 to test if he can board a train with a bowl of stew. The player of course tried that right away and encourages the community to send him tasks to do with bowls full of stew.
