Скачать или смотреть Festivus for the Rest of Us: The Top Five Sports Moments from Seinfeld

Every day has a story — and on December 23rd, that story is Festivus: the holiday for the rest of us. No decorations. No carols. Just a pole… and plenty of grievances.


On today’s episode of Sports History Daily, we celebrate Festivus by counting down the top five sports moments from Seinfeld — moments where real athletes, real teams, and real sports culture collided with one of the greatest sitcoms of all time.


From George Costanza flattening Bette Midler in a charity softball game, to Kramer’s disastrous stint as a ball man at the U.S. Open, to the legendary parody of George Steinbrenner and front-office chaos, this episode captures how Seinfeld perfectly understood the mind of the sports fan.


And at number one: Keith Hernandez, the Magic Loogie, and a JFK-style conspiracy that remains the gold standard for athlete cameos in television history.


It’s a Festivus celebration of fandom, superstition, egos, and grievances — because no show ever nailed sports culture quite like Seinfeld.
