How about George and Kramer scalping tickets? That was hilarious. The question is: Where did George go after he sold his ticket? Did Kramer say how much the clown paid him for the ticket? I can't remember.

Fans discuss George and Kramer scalping opera tickets, noting that George got ripped off when the buyer paid him $175 instead of the agreed $250, with appreciation for the subtle comedic detail.

No, I don't think that we know what the clown paid for the ticket, nor do we know where George went. (He probably went home and sulked or something, although he didn't really want to go to the opera in the first place.)
Did anyone else notice the beauty of the credits? If you have it on videotape, check it out. While the main theme from _I Pagliacci_ was playing in the background, there were stills of Jerry doing standup which made him look like he was this really emotional, brooding opera tenor. Priceless stuff.
Bravo! I live for this show.

Did anyone else notice that George was taken by the guy who bought the ticket? George and the guy agreed on a price of $250.
When George's girlfriend (can't remember her name) showed up, the guy turned around with his back to George, counted his money and then they hastily made the exchange. George never checked the money.
Then during the opera, someone asked how much George got for his ticket and the guy (now sitting next to Jerry) answered "$175".

Yes, I totally noticed that George got ripped off. I thought that that was intentional considering everyone else actually saw the opera. I was rolling on the floor about that. I guess it wasn't so obvious `cuz my wife missed it.
I thought it was the best show in a while; but they are ALL very funny.
I assumed that George had told Kramer he got $175 because they woul have agreed to split the proceeds. So George ripped off Kramer.
