Phil Rizzuto, Yankee Icon, Joke on Seinfeld
After Merv Griffin passed the other day, we didn't think we'd have another Seinfeld related death so soon? But then Phil Rizzuto passes, and he was more than a Yankee Icon. He was also used as a punch line in a very famous Seinfeld Episode from Season 8 [Order Season 8 NOW on DVD], called "the pothole." How can you forget the Holy Cow keychain stuck in asphalt, Elaine becoming a janitor for chinese food and Jerry's OCD coming to a head with guest star Kristin Davis. It's a Classic.
That's the legacy Phil Rizzuto has on American Pop Culture. More than just his Money Store ads. More than a Hall of Fame Shortstop. More than a Yankee Broadcaster who is able to promote an upcoming boys short shorts give away without looking like a total pedophile. Okay maybe not.
