Recent Events
A Storm of Swords
He and Penny were hired by a man known as Oswell to entertain the guests in Kingslanding during Joffrey Baratheons wedding to Margaery Tyrell riding a pig and a dog while in painted wooden armor.[1] Unknown to the pair this stunt was arranged by Petyr Baelish in order to provoke a quarrel between Tyrion and Joffrey in order to add further false evidence against the dwarf when he would be accused of Joffrey's murder.
A Feast of Crows
Oppo is murdered in Volantis by sailors from Westeros who falsely believe him to be Tyrion Lannister.[2]
The Winds of Winter
At the start of the Second Siege of Meereen, as they ready themselves for battle, Penny tells Tyrion Groat thought his sister Cersei was beautiful when he saw her when they jousted for King Joffrey. Tyrion thinks privately to himself that Groat was a stunted little lickspittle with a stupid name.
Quotes
