And now Winston, played by funnyman Paul Riley, 55, has been immortalised in a new artwork.
Now Still Game fans can catch a glimpse of their favourite grumpy man all over again - as he's been painted on a wall next to Queen Street.
Local artist Tef captured the telly pensioner's signature grimace in a piece that has been praised by punters and co-stars alike.
He shared a video of his work on social media with the caption "Stevieee" - a nod to Winston's comical rivalry with Stevie the bookie, played by Matt Costello.
Gavin Mitchell, 60, who plays Bobby the Barman, was quick to praise the mural.
He posted a series of emojis to signify the famous "two prints p***k" catchphrase that's synonymous with the series.
One fan said: "Love this!! We need an Isa one next."
Another supporter wrote: "This is class - we need the full set."
A dedicated viewer added: "Looks like the face he's making when he's on the back of the bus in the Dial-a-Bus episode."
And an impressed follower quipped: "My dog is named after Winston.
"I need to find this so I can take a picture of it with my dog."

Sadly vandals defaced the mural shortly after it was completed.
Terf hit headlines last month when he painted another mural of a comedy character.
He paid tribute to comic Brian 'Limmy' Limond by spraying his sketch show character Dee-Dee onto the side of a building next to Yoker Ferry.
It's a nod to a popular episode of the programme where he goes on a mysterious adventure to the Glasgow district.
