The Iron Throne in NYC

The final season of Game of Thrones is upon us and, like many a nerd across the globe, I'm irrationally excited. 

And, speaking of across the globe, this past weekend six Iron Thrones were scattered at various worldwide locations: England, Canada, Sweden, Spain, Brazil -- and, yes, here in NYC. Specifically, Fort Totten Park, Queens.

We went out there on Saturday to try and sit on it, but the line was five hours long. When you have two little kids, such a task is impossible. However, we did catch a peak of it so our nerdy hearts were satisfied.

By the way, Fort Totten is a very cool place to go anyway, a (until recently) secret park in Queens. There are beautiful views of the water and NYC skyline in the background. Definitely worth checking out, Iron Throne or no.
