This summer’s most sought-after Yankees bobblehead doesn’t wear pinstripes.
On Thursday, Aug. 21, the Bronx Bombers are giving away “George Costanza napping under his desk” bobbleheads to the first 18,000 fans to show up to their game against the rival Boston Red Sox.
These instantly iconic collectibles are an homage to the classic “Seinfeld” season eight episode “The Nap,” where “the assistant to the traveling secretary” aka George treats himself to a little shuteye under former owner George Steinbrenner’s workstation while on the clock.
Each bobblehead comes with an inscription of the classic quote “I love a good nap. That’s the only thing getting me out of bed in the morning.”
“In the episode, Costanza, played by Jason Alexander, transforms his desk’s underbelly into a sleeping area fit with an alarm clock and space for a blanket and cup holder with the help of a handyman,” The Post shared.
“Just when he tries to test out his new office sleeping area, Steinbrenner, voiced by Larry David, comes in looking for Costanza, which prompts him to phone Jerry Seinfeld to make an emergency call to get the Yankees owner out of the building.”
If you want to go to this game — that also happens to be a potentially high-stakes matchup against their long-running AL East nemesis — tickets are available as of today.
At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on tickets for the Aug. 21 contest was $51 including fees on Vivid Seats.
100-level seats start at $108 including fees.

Larry David Beacon Theatre show
On Oct. 21, Larry David is taking part in a one-night-only ‘A Conversation With Larry David’ show at NYC’s Beacon Theatre.
David, 77, will discuss his “time on ‘Seinfeld,’ ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm,’ and everything in between” at the special event.
“[This show] is really nothing,” the writer/actor deadpanned in an Instagram video teasing the 2024 tour. “It will be a total waste of your time…I guess if you have nothing to do but you could consider bowling. It’s not a terrible idea.”
