Okay - that deserves a trivia question.

In what episode, and for what, was the number 47 used in Seinfeld plots?

(I know three significant ones, I think) Hint: "1947", "an anniversary", "food"

I think Jerry & Elaine get # 58 first while waiting in the line for the bobka. Dave & Barbara Benedict had #48 that Jerry & Elaine THOUGHT they deserved.

Was it in 1947 that Uncle Leo was supposed to have given Morty $50, as his share of their father's race track winnings?

Not sure, but that was The Kiss Hello and Leo owed the money to his sister Helen, but Morty was figuring out the interest on the money too.

Here's Morty's figures- Leo owed Helen $50.. that ended up being $663.45 at 5% over 53 years.(Those are Morty's words from the show.) The episode first aired on 02/16 / 95 . SO 1995 minus 53 years would give you 1942 for the year of the track visit by Helen's and Leo's father. FYI Helen's & Leo's father died in 1962 .
