Everyone thought there was another editing error on “Game of Thrones” this week, but they were WRONG. The character Jaime Lannister lost his hand in Season 3, and has been wearing a gold, FAKE hand ever since. Yesterday, an image from Sunday’s episode started circulating of Jaime with his REAL HAND back. Except it wasn’t. The image NEVER appeared in the episode.  It was a promotional photo that was taken way back when the episode was filmed.

Remember last year when the Aussie crowds pressured country stars like LUKE BRYAN and LUKE COMBS into doing a “shoey?” It’s where you drink alcohol out of a shoe, or boot, or some kind of footwear.

So somebody offered her their cowboy boot, and that grossed her out.
