Brooklyn Dad Wins Father’s Day Pedro Pascal Look-Alike Contest at NYC Mexican Restaurant
George Gountas, a dad from Greenpoint, Brooklyn who works as a lighting designer for The Daily Show, won a Pedro Pascal look-alike contest that was held on Father's Day 2025 at the Son del North location on the Lower East Side of Manhattan.

A Brooklyn dad was dragged by his family to a look-alike contest for actor Pedro Pascal on Sunday - and ended up winning it.
Gountas' wife Jenny Gania said that they first noticed the resemblance from Pascal's appearance in Game of Thrones.
