23 'Game Of Thrones' Captions For Instagram, Because Summer Is Coming

by Marisa Casciano

If I had to take a wild guess, I'd say you know at least a few things about Game of Thrones. Nowadays, it's hard not to know the names of characters like Jon Snow, Daenerys Targaryen, and Tyrion Lannister, along with quotes like, "Winter is coming." Because you really can't go on social media without finding a meme, a spoiler, or a tweet about the epic theories that circle around this iconic show. It's a lot to keep up with, even for hardcore fans who spend every Sunday night cheering on Arya Stark as she defeats her enemies. That's why I'm here to give you some Game of Thrones captions for Instagram, so you don't need to keep track of the best quotes from each episode and the never-ending plot details.

Now, just in case you didn't know, the world is currently in the heat of the last season of Game of Thrones. On Sunday, May 19 at 9 p.m. ET, the finale will air on HBO, and it's expected to have every viewer sitting on the edge of their seat. (Would you honestly expect anything less, though?) Like most episodes of this show, I assume it will be filled with lots of scenes that will tug on fans' heartstrings. However, I will be tuning into the action via social media and watching everybody's reactions — to the coffee cup that wasn't edited out, the Mad Queen's next moves, and who will ultimately sit on the Iron Throne — flow onto my feed.

To me, the reactions and how dedicated fans are to the character developments and the dreadful goodbyes, are the best part of this show. I haven't seen every single episode, but those reactions alone have taught me so much about the battles to come and the importance of quotes like, "Winter is coming." So I feel pretty qualified to give you these 23 Game of Thrones captions for your summertime Instagram posts, and to wish you a solid "good luck" as the finale streams on your screen.
