*Warning: Game of Thrones spoilers ahead!*
Like almost everyone these days, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is a huge fan of Game of Thrones.
Unlike most of us, however, Rodgers was famous enough to reach out to David Benioff and D.B. Weiss to secure himself a small cameo in the show's penultimate episode.
He's teased his appearance for months now, though many didn't know he was being serious.
OMG...thought he was joking @AaronRodgers12 @GameOfThrones @KentuckyDerby #GameofThrones https://t.co/fkDgBlFeGQ— Sam Alex (@Sam Alex) 1557497200.0
But as the episode premiered on Sunday, May 12, Rodgers revealed his cameo was as real as can be.
I hope everyone recognizes what’s at stake tonight in terms of Gifs if Aaron Rodgers kills someone or gets killed.— Big Cat (@Big Cat) 1557687965.0
Quickly, Twitter users believed they spotted the all-star quarterback amongst the archers at King's Landing.
