Hallo Just seen "The Money". Kramer enters Jerry�s apartment where Jerry�s parents are. He aks for some items to clean his shoes that Jerry always hides. His Parenst sy, he is in Atlantic City in a hotel called "Valley". Kman says he knows the number, because he had little trouble some time ago in Atlantic City. Now, my question: What kind of trouble was there in Atlantic City? Hope you can answer. Volker.

Kramer had a gambling habit - could it be related to that?

IIRC the Atlantic City episode was when Miss Delaware (?) was Kramer's prot�g� in the Miss America contest in Atlantic City. She had a magic act with two doves which were inadvertently killed by George. Kramer had her substitute as a singer at the last minute. She was a disaster.

John, that was a different episode from the one the original question referred
to where Kramer refers to his "trouble".  You are talking about The
Chaperone.   And it was Jerry who spilled the water killing the doves.  And it
was Miss Rhode Island.  Otherwise you were correct.  They both had to do with
Atlantic City.   But it is not the one he was asking about.

In the other episode, The Money, Jerry lies to his parents that he has a gig in Atlantic city but he is really flying to Florida to buy the Cadillac back. When they find out through Kramer's inquiry that there is no Jerry Seinfeld registered at the Atlantic City Bally's, Jerry says he booked the room under the name Slappy White.

Mike,

As usual, you are kee-rect!

BTW, with all these new quiz programs on t.v., I would love to see you on one of them with "Seinfeld" as the category. I think you could go head-to-head with Larry David and win a large chunk of change. (Or a contestant could use you as a "lifeline" for a Seinfeld question on Regis Philbin's Millionaire program!)

Best wishes and good health for the New Year.

BTW...It's Bally's, which is hotel/casino. Kramer has freely admitted to his gambling problem in a couple of episodes.
