First off, It's a Seinfeld Holiday and every December 23rd, Seinfeld celebrate it like crazy.
Started off on an episode called "the strike" we find out more about Costanza's life.
He doesn't officially celebrate Christmas he celebrates Festivus. A holiday started by his father, Frank which started many years ago which he quoted to Kramer about the origins of it becoming when he was getting a doll for his son and someone else was also reaching for the doll, and then a new holiday was born. It requires a pole with no decorations and the 'feats of strength', where you get out all your anger on one person and tag team then until someone wins
Kramer also gets his job back where he use to work at a bagel factory and just got his job back, but after he hears about this interesting holiday, he wants to take the 23rd off. He walks out on a strike when told no. He even turns the steam on, making the bagel shop a little steamy, causing Elaine's hair to flatten and her make up to look a little scary since she was trying to wait for some guys to call the bagel place so she can get a certain phone number from a guy for some fake phone number that was on a sub card that she wanted for a free sub.
Meanwhile Jerry picked up a girl at a party, however when he saw her again, she looked very different to him. She kept wondering why he was taking her to Monk's all the time, she soon finds out from Kramer, as he calls it, 'A Festivus Miracle' and they break up. Same thing happened to Elaine and the guy she was meeting and well, he gave her a fake number and she never got the sub.
They all meet to Frank and Estelle's house to have a Festivus dinner. George eventually shows up because of what he did, giving most of his co-workers and boss a fake Christmas gift and tells his boss that 'Festivus was all too real.' Eventually at the end, the 'Feats of strength' was against Frank and George, George wining all the way through.
One funny episode, and ever since that episode was made, a new holiday was born, we don't celebrate it much but we do 'Air our Grievances' and do the 'Feasts of Strength' just for the fun of it. Happy Holidays to every one of you and will blog again on the new year!!!! Ciao bloggers and Merry Christmas and Happy Festivus!
