For people wondering Burnie wasn’t joking about being President of that company. To make the story even more eye opening hes 47 right now. He was president of a company at 26.

I’ll throw my hat in the ring; working for PVH (clothing company) as a job while I go to college, but super early into me working there my department manager was talking to the CFO and I just walk in and the dude asks me how I’m doing but begins quizzing me on what I’m doing here and how I’m doing my job. And I answered “approvingly” but was also like “dude, I enjoy working here but I’m also enjoying my coffee.” And went on my way. My manager later said “you have no idea who that is do you?” And she clued me in. But overall wonderful experiences.

I've been waiting for this rtaa to come out 😭😭😭😭

Tell ya what, props to the animation team. I don't watch any Rhett and Link but could straight away tell it was them. Hat's off to the team 🙌

I love that slow head turn so much!

Greatest crossover event of the century

This video deserves major love!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can relate to that so much, thanks for telling us this story!

I love that Rhett and Link are now animated!

This story is why I love Gus.

that smooth head turn tho! hahaha

The myth, the legend, has finally come true

that's how did i love these two

This is an amazing story

I love these two

I'm so glad this got animated

These two will always be my favorite XD

I love this origin story

I would have been 9 when that happened. Christ, time really flies.

Just noticed I don't have the bell clicked, but I get notified about EVERY rooster teeth video

Shows how good friends they are.

so glad to see kevin as a recurring character

The earliest know interaction with Mr Burns was when he was a leader. Dude should have ran for president.

The podcast with Rhett and link was just gold

How me and 80% of my friends became friends lmao

To this day, Gus still doesn't know what Burnie's job is.

Yesss, I’ve been waiting for this, it was told a while ago wasn’t it?

Good luck with Gus!! I’m far enough to where ya can’t get me 😂😂

I can't help but see Burnie and Gus as Goku and Vegeta just from the way they both act towards each other.

So Gus is able to turn his pure rage and spite into skill that is a great power.

I'm happy Burnie still exists in the RTAAs

DOA is amazing. Great choice.

Gus pulled a Luigi death stare like a champ.

Can’t believe they’ve never told this story before

If Burnie hadn't beaten Gus at Dead or Alive 2, then RoosterTeeth as we know it may not have existed

Why is Gus always so awesome

I really want to see a series of Gus VS Bernie in fighting games that ends in a DoA 2 match.

Gus is my spirit animal.

Gus just threatened us that if we didn’t subscribe and hit the bell he’ll drive to our houses and play video games with us. Fine with me, I’ll get the Dreamcast ready.

Your friendship is so old it can legally drink.

I love that Jordan didn't even try to draw the travesty that is the Dreamcast controller

Gus do you promise if i dont youll drive here!? Lol

that turning around animation was scary

Dude, I didn't realize how old they were, but they are clearly older than I thought. They've known each other for 21 years!

If they both wernt so busy Id love to see them do a small VS of Burnie vs Gus

It took me till about half way to realise this was Rhett and link!!

It’s a strange concept but it is true that you can simultaneously be great friends and absolutely hate each other.

The head turn XD

Thanks gus

when you're so determined to beat a stranger at dead or alive 2 that you drive across the ocean

of course Gus would be the kind of person to stare at you over a video game and be all "You and I are Frenemies now >: ( "

Bring it on

Oh god that head turn

21 years ago! I remember when dreamcast was new! I was 8! essentialism!

Rage started a long friendship. Somehow that makes perfect sense with Gus.

Bring it.

This is how 12 year olds make friends. I love it!

No one gonna talk about that James Baxter-esque head turn?

"And then that guy came back and stole the Dreamcast."

Good luck driving that far

Bring it Gus my dream cast is ready and waiting

Gus coming to my house? Don't threaten me with a good time pal!

Good Mythical Morning guys :D

Good luck Gus!!! Hahahahaha!

The updated RTAA team seems to be really missing Burnie.
