Horseplay
Horses are one of the best things about Red Dead Redemption 2, and not just because they're faster than walking. These stories demonstrate the wonderful unpredictability they introduce to our ill-fated attempts at looking cool or being competent.
Got between a fight that I saw since I wanted to practice fighting. Was doing well against two guys at once, until the dude's horse decides to take part in the action and kick me down. It went South from there... #reddeadstoriesOctober 27, 2018

Hunting season
Other folks are treating Red Dead Redemption 2 like a cowboy-flavored fishing and hunting simulator, and honestly I can't blame them.

The weird west
And last up, it wouldn't be an open world game without some strange happenings. Whether they're out-and-out glitches or just clever, unexpected touches from the team at Rockstar Games, Red Dead Redemption 2 may never stop surprising us.

Found a dude being eaten by a wolf, shot it a load to scare it off, offered him a health pack but he laughed it off cos of how much blood he was losing, didn't have anything else so shot him in the head...got a good honour boost for putting him out his misery! #reddeadstoriesOctober 28, 2018
Thanks for sharing your stories with us! I can only imagine how much stranger they'll get once the Red Dead Online begins and you can add the eternal weirdness of other human beings to the heady brew of old west shenanigans.
