The Bakersfield Condors of the ECHL will pay tribute to Seinfeld with “Puffy Shirt” jerseys on November 16 as part of a special night commemorating the 25th anniversary of the show’s premiere. The jerseys are designed after the infamous puffy shirt that Jerry had to wear on an episode of The Today Show during season five of the show. Check ’em out below:
Instead of Condors players’ surnames, the nameplate on the back of each jersey will feature a character from the show. In addition, the jerseys will also feature sponsorships from fictional companies from the show – including Vandelay Industries, Kramerica, and Pendant Publishing.
Below you can find the list of 20 confirmed characters who will be honored with jerseys. The final five characters will be decided by fan voting.

Not only is it an awesome promotion, but it’s also for a good cause. The jerseys will be auctioned off for charity after the game, and I will be so incredibly jealous of whoever puts in the winning bid for the ‘Assman’ jersey.
