I see you guys have already been talking about it, but watching this episode today, I realized this is the first time I've seen it. Very strange too after reading the notes for this episode on tvtome.com.

I was surprised to see this one. Was it announced in the Seinfeld newsletter?!? Anyway, since I read the script for this episode before, everything was sort of dejavu for me. I enjoyed the apartment scenes and Elaine under the bleachers.

Thought the Puerto Rican day episode was not going to be shown on TV any more.

Saw it yesterday...

Nope, it was just that NBC said they would voluntarily not show it again. There is no restriction from anyone else in syndication.

Because of the scene where Kramer (accidentally) sets fire to the Puerto Rican flag.

And that was the funniest part of all. Especially when he tried to put it out by stepping on it.
