So did anybody know George Costanza is...

[MostReal]

George Wallace on Seinfeld? Or at least loosely based off him.

I'm watching Unsung last night and him and Jerry are great long time friends. They were even roommates in NY for 13years.
During that time they use to go to a dinner, chill out and write jokes.

Check this out George Wallace also almost married a woman named Elaine. He said he still loves her but she went off and married someone else. His other friend

i heard something on here a while ago in a Seinfeld thread about George was supposed to be black, played by Chris Rock but it didn't work out for whatever reason. i can't watch Seinfeld anymore, shyt isn't funny to me at all but i liked it when i was younger.

What's crazy is Chris Rock is in the story too. He used to be at the comedy club George and Jerry was at. He said he used to steal all his jokes and go do them at another set. Chris stated he wanted to be like George Wallace.

George Wallace said he the father of all Seinfeld kids, to joke like that shows just how close they are.
