Game of Thrones fans witnessed quite a scene in season three when Ramsay Snow brutally chopped of Theon Greyjoy's most valuable possession -- his manhood -- while Greyjoy was held prisoner. To commemorate this gory cinematic moment, T-shirt brand Shirtoid designed these hilarious 'Greyjoy's Famous Hot Dogs' tees that cleverly poke fun at Greyjoy's lack of manhood.

These [funny fantasy T-shirts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/geeks-rule) creatively poke fun at Greyjoy for being known as Snow's man slave, Reek, after Greyjoy was brutally disfigured. This T-shirt design uses [clever wordplay](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/made-to-order) to compare Greyjoy's manhood to a [famous hot dog](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/road-bread). While this shirt is funny, it is important to note that Greyjoy's physical lost of manhood also sadly marked the lost of his status, title and identity.
