Good ones!  I also thought of Elaine and her itch which doctors refuse to treat her for because she’s difficult, and George with a new haircut. “I’m all itchy back here!”

Completely forgot about the Elaine one.

In 1979 Mr. Peterman had "just a taste" of white lotus, yam-yam, Shanghai Sally.  What was he, and what was he searching for?

Some special kind of corduroy. 

That's not it...but in all fairness this is a pretty difficult question.

I'm not sure then. But I know in some different episode Peterman does recount a tale of being on a search for corduroy. 

"I was travelling the Yangtzee in search of a Mongolian horsehair vest. I had got to the market after sundown, all of the clothing traders had gone, but a different sort of trader still lurked about."

In the Puffy Shirt episode, George bumps into a woman in the restaurant who gives him her card and encourages him to call her about doing some hand modeling; what was her name?

Watched The Marine Biologist episode to celebrate. Gotta be one of the best episodes in sitcom history. Perfectly executed.

Nah, I consider this a question out of my father's playbook. He'll be watching an episode, and then call me and be like "I have some Seinfeld trivia for ya...." and then proceed to ask something like this: the name of a random character that has minimal screen time, which he only knew because he just watched it. 

So I have no clue. But I do recall the former hand model who WASN'T master of his domain: Ray McKingley.

He could have had any woman in the world he wanted.....but none could match the beauty of his own hand.

In the episode “the Pie,” Elaine demands that the suit shop take down the mannequin that looks oddly like her, and tell the clerk that Jerry is her lawyer. What “precedent” does Jerry cite as governing the situation?

Bonus: what size suit do both George and his rival buyer wear?

Ledbetterman10

George and his rival’s suit size is 40 short. Can’t remember Jerry’s legal precedent. 

vant0037

Clerk: “Oh yes?  What law am I breaking?”
Jerry: “I believe there’s some legal precedent here. Winchell v. Mahoney...the Charlie McCarthy hearings....”

i always loved how he rattled off the BS so quickly...

HughFreakingDillon

isn't 90% of this thread completely random information that no sane person should know? the name is on the tip of my tongue. i think it's a fair question. 

vant0037

I make no comment on any question posed.  

My own view is that the art of a good trivia question is posing one that makes you think, not agonize, and is one where the answer is a payoff, in the sense that it makes you remember a joke, an episode, or some aspect of the show that you enjoyed.

How did Kramer help his friend Dwayne (who sold eyeglasses) get off sugar?

I think its actually time to watch the series again...so many details that triggered laughter as vantoo37 mentioned that I have forgotten...looking forward to revisiting the great giggles...

HughFreakingDillon

man, these latest questions are TOUGH. I have no idea on any of them.

name one woman who had orgasms with Jerry when they were dating.

These questions (name a name that was said once in passing) are so hard if you haven't seen the episode recently. But I'll take a wild guess.....

Lauren Messinligler?

i haven't seen any episodes recently. I haven't had cable in 5 years. I just sometimes remember odd details. I don't know if there was more than one, but the one I remember is jerry getting off the phone, and then calling Elaine and shouting "BECKY LAWRENCE HAD EM! hello? hello?". 

I don't really understand the criticisms of some questions. if all the easy ones have been asked and answered, why not try to make it harder?

Oh lord, I just said it was hard. That's not much of a "criticism."

I don't recall who it was, but recently someone has been complaining about some of the questions as being too random and shouldn't be asked, or something like that. 

I took it that you were agreeing with those criticisms. My apologies.

I guess I'll answer my own since it was just skipped......

Taking him to Joe's fruit stand and stuffing cantaloupe down his throat.
