It’s the final season of Game of Thrones, and apparently everybody who’s anybody wants a look at the set before it closes down for good. For example, a month back, Star Wars creator George Lucas visited Titanic Studios in Belfast, where the bulk of the show is filmed, and left Emilia Clarke (Daenerys Targaryen) speechless.

Do you think he gave any dialogue advice?
Now, inventor, Tesla CEO and fellow billionaire Elon Musk has also paid a visit to the set, according the Belfast Telegraph. The Telegraph actually suggested on Twitter that Musk was visiting to consider investing, and Musk stepped in to set them straight.
No, was just there with my kids for a few hours to see the GoT set & had dinner at a pub. Love the show and GRRM’s books.

Hey, you’d jump to conclusions too if you were wondering how to fill the Game of Thrones-sized hole in your economy that’ll open up after the show leaves in, like, a day.
Anyway, we’re guessing cast and crew weren’t quite as starstruck by Musk as they were for Lucas, but they did have the opportunity to hit the tycoon up for a set of those special Tesla rims. I wonder if Musk and his kids had to sign non nondisclosure agreements.
Musk made his initial fortune by founding online city guide Zip2 before starting the financial service company that went on to become PayPal. Nowadays, Musk is most famous for Tesla’s electric cars, space exploration company SpaceX and his fear that Westworld is going to happen for real.
