While most of us will be watching the Game of Thrones Season 5 finale on couches in our homes, like peasants, a few lucky people will be able to see all the murdering and dragon-murdering in true regal style. This year’s Bonnaroo festivities will feature screenings of the finale in its Cinema Tent, and if you are A) one of the winners of the lottery drawing and B) open to watching the finale of one of your favorite shows while surrounded by thousands of weird smelly festival attendees, you can watch while sitting on the actual Iron Throne.
According to the Bonnaroo website, there will be three screenings of the finale, taking place at 10 p.m., 11:30 p.m. (“15 minutes after Billy Joel,” to give the swarms of Thrones-loving Piano Man fans time to make their way to the tent, I guess?), and midnight. How exactly these screenings of the hour-long episode will work on that schedule, I have no idea. Maybe they have two screens. Maybe the 11:30 screening has all the nudity and violence edited out to squeeze it into 30 minutes. Maybe it’s just a Red Wedding-style ambush to kill all the Billy Joel fans at Bonnaroo. Who knows, really?
