Limmy's Big Iron Adventure

You take a sip from your trusty Vault 13 canteen... Limmy It's shut...

A real-life man is edited into a Fallout-style video with a yellow game HUD, wandering through urban scenery as the player character Limmy. He drinks from a Vault 13 canteen, approaches a closed elevator, and the clip ends on a grotesquely distorted cowboy-like face. Marty Robbins’s country-western song “Big Iron” plays over the increasingly absurd sequence, making the ordinary walk feel like a dramatic Fallout quest and the final face reveal work as the punchline.

To the town of Alfre who rode his stranger one fine day Hardly spoke to folks around him didn't have too much to say No one dared to ask his business, no one dared to make a slip The strangers there among them had a big iron on his hip Big iron on his hip It was early in the morning when he rode into the town He came right in from the south side, slowly looking all around His outlaw, Lucent, running, came, the whispered from each lip And he's here to do some business with the big iron on his hip Look at him! Look at him! Look at him! Stop! Stop! Bastard!
