Interactions

Red Dead Redemption

He is first encountered at Benedict Point. In the game, the player saves him from numerous gang hideouts scattered over the map. The first hideout is Gaptooth Breach, then Pike's Basin and finally Tesoro Azul. After being saved for the last time, he expresses regret for coming to New Austin and says he will pursue other ventures.

Undead Nightmare

He appears as a 'Boss' in Tumbleweed's Cemetery. He rises from his grave screaming in a zombified voice "I'm gonna have the time of my life, sport!". His grave stone states that he died in 1911 from a gunshot wound and bears the phrase: "A humorist who rarely had the last laugh".

Trivia

• His stranger mission is used to first introduce players to Gang Hideouts.
• He expresses the ignorant stereotypes that the East had of the Wild West at the time.
• Despite not being particularly funny, he seems to be a comedian also hence the stranger mission name and in a newspaper article in the Blackwater Ledger.
• His name most likely a reference to the character Saint Jimmy in the album American Idiot, by Green Day. He also says that he will have the time of his life, which is also a song by Green Day (Time of Your life or Good Riddance).
• He may be an allusion to Ambrose Bierce, a vitriolic satirist who disappeared in Mexico in the early 20th century.
