Yankees’ George Costanza bobblehead presales going for more than tickets to that day’s game

Ruth, Gehrig, DiMaggio, Mantle…Costanza?!

Some Yankees fans are apparently just as fervent about iconic “Seinfeld” character George Costanza as they are for the team’s legends, as pre-sale prices for tickets to the Aug. 21 game, when they’ll be given to the first 18,000 fans.

As of Tuesday morning, there were multiple sold listings on eBay for the bobblehead for over $200 and as high as $250.

Meanwhile, tickets for that day’s game against the Red Sox can be had for as low as $52 including fees on Vivid Seats.

The bobblehead depicts Costanza sleeping under his desk in the Season 8 episode “The Nap,” and features the quote, “I love a good nap. Sometimes it’s the only thing getting me out of bed in the morning.”

A recent Aaron Judge Superman bobblehead given out at a game on June 20 has been selling for over $100 on eBay.

The Yankees gave out a Costanza bobblehead last year, that one depicting him with a baseball bat, a reference to him helping Derek Jeter and Bernie Williams with their swings during a Season 8 episode.

Last July, some of those were selling on eBay for as much as $215.

Aug. 21 marks the beginning of a four-game series against the Red Sox, the last time the Yankees host their rivals this season; they’ll play a three-game set at Fenway from Sept. 12-14.
