Kramer’s Reality Tour

Seinfeld remains one of my all time favorite shows of all time so how could I resist going on the Seinfeld Reality Tour? In my mind I thought that we were going to get a pizza bagel and bite-​sized Three Musketeers while on a bus that had a bag full of muffin stumps at the back, but that is not exactly what happened.
We actually met at the Producer’s Club Theater and Kenny Kramer made an hour+ long multimedia presentation. He spoke about his relationships with Larry David and later Jerry Seinfeld, the genesis of the show and essentially what was fact vs. what was fiction. Kenny is very funny and engaging so the hour flew by.
The next portion of the tour might not have been as well received by other tour guests — a visit to «kra-​mart» to look at all of the Seinfeld/​Kramer merchandise, but Christmas is coming and I have a lot of friends that love Seinfeld so the Vandelay Industries bumper stickers were a hit with me.
The motor coach was nice and modern. Our first stop was to the Soup Nazi’s where I partaked in a cup of Lobster Bisque and Kenny gave the opportunity to have your picture taken with him. The coach then drove up the Upper West Side with Kenny showing us various sites that were referred to or used in the show. Because quite a few years have passed since the show concluded, a lot of the sites, like Kenny Rogers Roasters, are no longer in business.
The less than $ 40 price tag, Kenny’s funny and well thought out presentation and the opportunity to re-​visit one of the greatest tv shows ever made makes this the perfect way to spend a Saturday afternoon.
