In an interaction with Sports Illustrated, the Mets pitcher revealed his 'dream come true' moment. He travelled to Spain during the off season to play a cameo in the HBO hit series Game of Thrones.

"It was just a dream come true," Syndergaard said. "I think it's the greatest TV show of all time, so just to be able to say I was in 'Game of Thrones' is an unbelievable feeling."

Syndergaard is featured as a member of the Lannister army in the fourth episode The Spoils of War and his only job was to throw a spear to a Dothraki.

Sharing his experience, later the sports star wrote on Twitter, "Take that you mean Dothraki."

The American professional Baseball pitcher, who is fondly known as long-haired God of Thunder further tweeted, "To my sides defense . . . they had a FRICKEN DRAGON!!! At least I didn't throw behind him."

This is not the first time that a big star appeared as a cameo in the series. Earlier, English singer Ed Sheeran appeared in the first episode in the current season. The Shape of You hitmaker played the role of a Lannister soldier while being featured beside Arya Stark (Maisie Williams).
