    About Seinfeld:
    Seinfeld stars Jerry Seinfeld as a stand-up comedian whose life in New York City is made even more chaotic by his quirky group of friends who join him in wrestling with life's most perplexing, yet often trivial questions. Often described as "a show about nothing," Seinfeld mines the humor in life's mundane situations like waiting in line, searching for a lost item, or the trials and tribulations of dating. Co-starring are Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Jerry's ex-girlfriend and current platonic pal, Elaine Benes; Jason Alexander as George Costanza, Jerry's neurotic hard-luck best friend; and Michael Richards as Jerry's eccentric neighbor, Kramer.

    We love you Cosmo. You just stole the scene… Elaine smoking that cigar behind that big desk says it all. The urban sombrero makes the cover of the catalog? Say it ain’t so…. We need Morty Seinfeld….he worked with Harry Fleming and they made big bucks using cheap fabric and dim lighting…. Now that’s how it’s done.

    An urban Sombrero would have worked in 2012.
