  1. no hes not. jon is not the king. what part of "the targaryen dynasty is done" is not sinking in?no one can prove rhaegar and lyanna married so jon is a bastard. bastards only inherit if there's no other claimants better than him. and i happen to know there's two that do. jaime and dany.

  2. Actually, Jon cannot sit on the Iron Throne, even if R+L= J. Why? First of all, Lyanna and Rhaegar were still not married. Jon is still a bastard, and cannot sit the Iron Throne. And if they were secretly married, the emphasis would be on the word "secret." No one would know except Rhaegar (dead), Lyanna (dead), Ned (dead), and Howland Reed (unreliable source). Do you think the Lords of the Seven Kingdoms would bend the knee to Jon on those dubious credentials?

  3. I think what's gonna happen is… Jon Snow is going to get resurrected in Season 6, will end up meeting Daenerys, marry Daenerys and they will become King & Queen of the Iron Throne. and then they will have TRUE Targaryen babies that will be able to ride the dragons… because they're both of Targaryen bloodline.

  4. !!SPOILER ALERT!! Rhaegar was married to Elia Martell, so Jon would still be a bastard. What is interesting though (and completely left out of the show) is that Robb NAMES JON AS HIS HEIR BEFORE HE DIES. Jon is not the king of westeros, BUT HE IS KING IN THE NORTH!

  5. a song of ice and fire I took to mean Lyanna is the ice and Rhaegar is the fire so when they came together and conceived a child he/she would be the ice and fire in one.If this theory is true, something big will come where Jon saves the entire realm from the threat of the wights and the singers in westeros sing songs about him, thus making him the song of ice and fire, this theory seems plausible, especially after witnessing the intense interest from both Melisandre and King Wight but who else alive knows his true parentage and can prove to Jon who he really is? Unless Dany finally comes to Westeros and Jon having the blood of the dragon is able to control her dragons too?

  6. Nerd out with me for a sec…. three dragons, must have three riders…. dragons really only let Targaryen's ride… only one rider per dragon… Jon Snow is likely Targaryen blood, thus dragon rider….  Jon Snow is Stark blood, AND probably got some "wargish" tendencies going…. Jon Snow, skin changer, dragon warg. Seven save us.

  7. BLACK. Jon Snow's hair is Black. And Martin really put some effort to saw us that parents give birth to babys with the same hair color. Jon Snow maybe is the heir to the Iron throne but its because Leana was already pregnant by Robert when she got Stolen. "In my dreams I kill him every night" He said. THE END
