If there’s one thing all fans can agree on when it comes to Game of Thrones, it’s that we have some passionate opinions. (If you don’t believe me, just check out any Thrones subreddit.) Fans, many of whom have been watching since the show's debut in 2011, are bound to come up with their own theories and hold onto them for dear life. Although many seem credible at first, most are being proven wrong as the final season continues. But even Stephen King is ready to go out on a limb with his GoT predictions.

The acclaimed author—known to share his opinions on books, TV series, and movies on his Twitter account—took to social media earlier this week to weigh in on the Game of Thrones finale. We’re all dying to know who will sit on the Iron Throne, and King had an unexpected prediction. If both Daenerys Targaryen and Jon Snow end up dying, then Tyrion Lannister is his choice for winner.

He continued with the witty message, “Of course for years some people have told me I don't know how to end a story. I call bulls**t on that, but everyone has an opinion. :-).”

And King wasn’t done there. When a fan replied to him suggesting that Sansa Stark will show up at King’s Landing to take out Cersei Lannister, the author supported the idea.

We’re all placing bets on who will end up victorious in the finale, and we'll find out soon. Game of Thrones continues this Sunday with its second to last episode ever.
