** sneaking into New Austin as Arthur: A How-To Guide for the Rebellious Cowboy**

There are ways, unconventional and perhaps a tad foolhardy, to explore the forbidden land. So, grab your best sidearm, your most daring spirit, and get ready for a rootin' tootin' adventure!

| How To Get Into New Austin As Arthur |
Method 1: The Great Cart Caper
This method involves commandeering a covered wagon (think "borrowing" with extreme prejudice). Here's the plan:
- Locate your unsuspecting prey: Head to Strawberry, a town known for its delightful citizens and, more importantly for our purposes, a steady flow of covered wagons.
- The Art of the (Not-So-Gentle) Persuasion: Approach a wagon with its back turned (distraction is key!). Now, you have a choice: A. Horse-nap the driver (they won't be needing that nag where they're going, anyway) B. Give your best Clint Eastwood impersonation and yell "This wagon is mine now, sugar!" The choice is yours, just make it snappy!
- Hit the Gas (or Rather, the Horse): Once you're in the driver's seat (or, let's be honest, probably the passenger seat because who knew driving a wagon was so hard?), hightail it outta Strawberry faster than a jackrabbit on a hot tin roof. Remember, bounty hunters are gonna be on your dusty trail faster than you can say "wanted poster."
Word to the Wise: This method can be a bit bumpy (literally, those wagons ain't exactly luxury sedans). Also, don't be surprised if your newfound "carriage" catches fire at some point. It happens.
Tip: The middle often holds the main point.
Method 2: The Saint Bernard Strategy
This method is all about embracing the unexpected. Here's the deal:
- Head for the Hills (Specifically, Tall Trees): Make your way to the border of Tall Trees near the waterfall.
- Hope and a Prayer (and Maybe Some Mint): Sometimes, a glitch in the matrix (or the wild west, in this case) might just let you slip past the invisible sniper guarding the border. It's a gamble, partner, but hey, stranger things have happened (like surviving a grizzly bear attack with just a can of baked beans).
- **Run Like the Wind (or Like a Man Being Chased by Bounty Hunters): **If you do manage to squeeze through, get ready to sprint like you've never sprinted before. Those bounty hunters won't be too happy to see you.
Pro Tip: Chewing some mint beforehand might help with your stamina. Just sayin'.
Tip: Read carefully — skimming skips meaning.
So You've Made It to New Austin... Now What?
Congratulations, you daring outlaw! Now that you've braved the dangers, you can (briefly) enjoy the sights of New Austin. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
- Don't Get Too Comfortable: Remember, you're still on borrowed time. Those bounty hunters are relentless.
- Legendary Fish, Not-So-Legendary Welcome: You can snag some legendary fish in New Austin, but legendary animals are a no-go. Sorry, gotta wait until John takes the reins.
- Shop 'Til You Drop (or Get Shot): Enjoy the unique shops and outfits New Austin has to offer. Just beware of attracting unwanted attention.
