UPDATE: The New York Yankees are set to host a record turnout with their highly anticipated George Costanza bobblehead giveaway tonight, August 21, 2023, during the game against the Boston Red Sox. The first 18,000 fans through the gates at Yankee Stadium will receive this unique collectible, coinciding with the much-celebrated “Seinfeld Night.”
Fans are already lining up, some arriving as early as five hours before first pitch, to ensure they secure this limited-edition bobblehead. The figurine features Costanza, portrayed by Jason Alexander, in a classic scene from the iconic show, “Seinfeld,” where he is depicted sleeping under former owner George Steinbrenner’s desk. The bobblehead also showcases one of Costanza’s memorable quotes:
“I love a good nap. That’s the only thing getting me out of bed in the morning.”
This giveaway has fans buzzing, as last year’s Costanza bobblehead distribution drew massive crowds, with many waiting for up to four hours. The previous version depicted Costanza in a batting stance, wearing a dress shirt and pants. The excitement surrounding this year’s giveaway underscores the enduring popularity of the show and its characters in American culture.
As Yankees fans gather in anticipation, the atmosphere at Yankee Stadium is charged with enthusiasm. The team’s commitment to celebrating pop culture through these events not only enhances the fan experience but also highlights the connection between sports and entertainment.
With the game starting soon, all eyes will be on the stadium as fans look to capture their piece of Seinfeld history. Make sure to follow @yankeestadium on social media for live updates and coverage of this exciting event!
