'''Big Bob''' (originally known as the '''big bomb cannon''') is a [[cannon]] that appears in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. It is located in [[Fahr Outpost]] under a huge underground chamber. The name "Big Bob" is a wordplay on "[[Bob-omb]]," as the cannon is loaded with a large number of Bob-ombs and fired with a powerful explosion, as well as "{{wp|Big Bertha (howitzer)|Big Bertha}}," a famous large artillery model. When [[Mario]] goes there in hopes of finding a way to the [[Moon]], he is informed that he must seek out [[Goldbob]] to gain permission to use the cannon and [[General White]] to have him operate it if he wishes to use the cannon. After he locates them, Mario speaks to the [[Fahr Outpost mayor]] once more, and Big Bob is activated. A hatch underneath Mario and his [[party member|partner]] opens to load them into the barrel, and then numerous Bob-ombs are loaded into a chamber. After Mario is shot towards the Moon, all of the Bob-ombs parachute back down.
