Viewers discuss what Kramer says when he opens a box of Cuban cigars, with most agreeing it sounds like Spanish or nonsense speech, and one person calling it the funniest moment on the show.

When Kramer accepted the box of Cuban cigars, he looked at it and said something like "What's this?" Geo: "Cigars. From Cuba." K: "Oh...[opens box] <burst of speech>"

I didn't get <burst of speech>. It may not have been English. Can someone help?

I tell ya, with Seinfeld ya gotta concentrate on the show. None of this reading Kant while the show is on to divide your attention....

I think he was speaking arbitratry "foreign" syllables. My wife is Colombian and she didn't catch what he said. He seems pretty good at creating foreign "languages".

I swear, this was the funniest moment on the show; I couldn't stop laughing (I'm chuckling now just thinking about it). I could understand Kramer making a couple of nonsense comments right after the kick to the head, but it has become a chronic problem. I can see him blurting out now and then for the rest of the season. He was so funny at that "cigar" moment, you can see George start to laugh (out of character of course).

BTW, it's interesting watching them do 'nothing' while trying to produce a show about 'nothing'. It's really messing with my mind.

As far as the VCR tape and I can figure he said something in Spanish. Probably something with no meaning or just Kramers little special post karate kick language.
