Richfield couple wins full-size replica of Iron Throne from 'Game of Thrones'

RICHFIELD, Minn. (FOX 9) - A couple from Richfield, Minnesota received a full-size replica of the Iron Throne from HBO's "Game of Thrones" series Tuesday.

The two won the throne in a contest through AT&T. The throne is a full-size replica of the show’s iconic Iron Throne, and is over 7 feet high and weighs 310 pounds.

Ken and Gail Janes, a retired couple in Richfield, entered a national contest and won!

"When they first told me I won the contest, I thought I won a t-shirt or something," Gail Janes said.

Janes said they plan on keeping the throne secured in their backyard permanently, protecting it from the elements even when "Winter is coming."
