No dream is ever too big. That's what Complex correspondent Justin Roberson, a.k.a.Bauce Sauce, whispered to himself before departing for the Wild West Comedy Festival in Nashville, Tenn. earlier this month. There, the self-proclaimed Twitter celebrity would attempt to live out his fantasy of being the next great stand-up comedian.

He's got everything going for him: a crazy Twitter following, a killer sense of humor, and a mentor in comic Steve Byrne, who gives Roberson the coveted gig of opening for him. But, as we all know, 140-character jokes don't always translate IRL. Watch the video to see if Roberson has what it takes to make it in the brutal world of stand-up comedy.
