Young White Sox Fan Has George Costanza Moment During Game

CHICAGO, IL — It has been a George Costanza kind of year for the Chicago White Sox, and for one young fan during Sunday's home game against the Texas Rangers that came with a 'Seinfeld' moment of his own.

The young fan, who appears to be a teenager, was captured on the Fox Sports Southwest broadcast of the game downing quite a bit of ice cream. According to the news station on its YouTube channel, he ate 12 scoops of ice cream in six innings. That totals 2,700 calories, the video embedded below shows.

While this young man was likely not even alive in the 1990s when 'Seinfeld' was the most popular comedy on television, fans of the "show about nothing" were immediately reminded of the memorable 1993 episode "It's Not You, It's Me."

In one scene, the show's lovable hard-luck character George Costanza is at a tennis match taking in quite a bit of ice cream himself. The announcers at the tennis match in the show, which includes the voice of Chicago's own Eddie Olczyk, aren't as nice to Costanza though as the Fox announcers were to the young White Sox fan on Sunday.

"There's an invention.... it's called a napkin," one said while giving a play-by-play of George getting the treat all over his face and shirt on national TV.

Later in the episode, George's girlfriend breaks up with him with the famous "It's Not You, It's Me" line. It turns out he was dumped over the ice cream scene. It was him. Relive this memorable scene below.

Hopefully the young man from the game on Sunday does not meet the same fate as Costanza did after his fictional incident 25 years ago.
