I think it's great the way that Seinfeld sneaks in references of old shows with newer ones. For example, the name of Elaine's "boyfriend" was none other than Art "Vandelay", I am assuming this somehow ties in with George's ficticious job with "Vandelay" Industries when he was trying to con the woman at the unemployment office. Too bad "Art" didn't import/export latex products.

The Art Vandelay name has been around since the 2nd or 3rd episode, the Stakeout, when George made up a name to call himself. At the time, he said he was an architect.
