Hi everyone...I have a big New Years party every year-each with a different theme. (Last years was 80's themed...and ROCKED)
Anyhow...I am a huge Seinfeld fan...and thought I would have this years New Years party themed accordingly...to honor the new dvd releases. So far-I plan to have a "buffet" of all Seinfeld foods-from turkey and a box of wine...to black and white cookies, marble rye, Junior Mints, Jujyfruit...the whole thing. Of couse-there will be plenty of spiked Snapple.
There will be a small placecard next to each food with a Seinfeld quote...such as "If it is adjacent to refuse-IT'S REFUSE." Next to the little eclairs.
I have made a festivus pole for the occasion...and my husband is dressing as Kramer. Aside from the regular posters and such...do any of you have any other ideas that I could incorporate for the party. I am making a fusili Jerry, have a copy of the J Peterman catalog for the coffee table...and am putting a sign out front that says "Suzi's Memorial".
Any other non-food/buffet ideas would be appreciated! (I think I have those covered.)
Thanks!
Ambriehl

"The Kramer" poster is available for sale online and in some bookstores and would make an awesome addition, me thinks. |

Superman figure, it ain't Seinfeld without a Superman reference and a few pasta figures if you can find/make them would be nice

Hang a green bike from the ceiling. You can also get a "60 miles an hour" sign and add a 1 to it to make it "160 miles an hour". |

At your party you can pay homage to Jerry's girlfriend Melissa in the Apology Episode.
You can serve breakfast food and have the Scrabble game out and everyone can strip down and play and eat NAKED! |

We actually have a bicycle hanging from the ceiling out in the garage already!!!!
(our New Years Parties run from the garage(dance/dj room) through the kitchen and living room.
I did think of a heck of an idea a few minutes ago...thought I would run it by you all:
A close friend of mine works for a party supplies place-not kiddie theme party stuff-but big stuff-like prom and float decorations. I was watching Seinfeld tonight and saw the Merv Griffin set-and the lightbulb went off. I am gonna get a big roll of red corrugated paper to cover one wall in the house-use small white balloons around the edges for the "lights" and make a black sign to put in the center with the Merv Griffin logo on it in red. I can use a strand of white holiday lights to put around the edges and plug them in...just toss a few chairs in front of it afterwards...waddya think? |

Tell everyone to grab their champagne glasses for the midnight toast, then after looking around in your cupboards awhile, turn to them all, throw your hands in the air, and say "Ya know what? .... No champagne! |

Have one of your "George-looking" friends come out of the bathroom with his shirt off acting natural as if nothing's wrong. |

Hi everyone!
I have decided to give everyone a "name tag" as they enter the party..."Sidler", "Ping", "Uncle Leo", etc.
I contacted the Kenny Rogers Roaster company...but my email to them never got through. Hmmm....I know the restaurants are only outside of the US now...man it would be great to have something with the Roasters logo!
Does anyone have any good ideas for a Seinfeld drinking game? |

You could do a whole party just from Festivus: Picket Sign with "Bagels Bad-Festivus Good"
Have a feats of strength, Aluminum Pole, Stay away from tencil because its destracting.
Drinking game: Do Gendison's thing above. |

I think we've established in a different thread that there is no real Hennigans. You could however put a fake label on a bottle of scotch that says: Hennigans the no tell, no smell scotch.
If you have episodes on in the background you can also pick a drinking word....like "Jerry" and everytime that word is said on the show everyone drinks.
