We used the Florida Man Birthday Challenge to learn more about GTA 6’s Leonida and got more than we bargained for
Grand Theft Advent | Come share in our wisdom

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Rockstar Games has always had plenty to say. The Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption developer captures a moment in time through multiple projects by not just providing recognizable v🃏isual and audible cultural references defining the era a game is set in, but also biting satire of real-world political, economic, and social issues that remain timeless.
With the official reveal of the next Grand Theft Auto game, then, the question lingers over what Rockstar plans to parody next. The GTA 6 trailer all but confirms we’re heading back to Miami, Florida, which may be familiar to you if you’ve played GTA: Vice City. This time, though, we’♑re ditching the sleazy glam of the 80s for something more mꦉodern.
that play out like a greatest hits collection of the weird and wonderful things that Florida natives see on the regular – whatever Rockstar’s version of TikTok culture looks like will have lots to say, no doubt.The real-life references of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:GTA 6’s trailer remind us of a little game that may help us further get a feel for the sort of world that Rockstar plans to parody. If you’re curious about the other kind of shenanigans that happen in Florida, all you need to do is Google your birthday alongside the phrase ‘Florida man🧸.’ We’ve done it ourselves and if it tells us anything, Rockstar couldn&rs🥀quo;t have picked a better well - or person - to draw inspiration from.



When I first heard about the Florida Man game I thought my colleagues were being ridiculous – like, surely the American state can’t be that wild? But oh, how wrong I was. Now, I was born in the middle of August when the weather in Florida is hot, hot, hot. And as it turns out, this does change what Mr Florida Man gets up to as he goes about his daily business, as I found out upon Googling. The first entry that shows up is simply – and rather effectively, may I say – headlined: ‘Shirtless man rides motorcycle down the highway while lying on his back.’ And if you were wondering just how he does that, of course, thಌere’s a video of the man looking rather relaxed as he drives down the highway, with the footage being edited with slow-mo at the end, too, for dramatic effect. The thing that perhaps shocks me the most about the video isn’t the fact that he doesn’t have any hands on the steering wheel, it’s the bare feet! I know it’s boiling outside but come on now – that just screams danger to me. Trevor Phillips would be proud.


All of the above could 💙speak to some of the antics that Leonida's locals get up to, though we'd like to think it would make for one truly chaotic GTA 6 NPC. With news surely set to ramp ahead as the 2025 window approaches, though, we don't have long to waitᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ and find out.
