How Jerry Seinfeld Pays the Check 

👕 Festivus Merch For The Rest Of Us: bit.ly/2qfBmCh

"I was just getting an aspirin." LOL. that always gets me.

That check bit is one of Jerry's best no doubt. Punch after punch, perfect delivery.

He paid to impress the ladies but forgot his wallet everytime with the dudes. Classic

I appreciate that Jerry knows how much money he has. I hate it when wealthy celebrities get all shy and act like they don't have a ton of cash. I understand that you don't want strangers hitting you up for a loan, but being generous to hardworking waitstaff is hardly a burden.

Just to add to the theme here: Abraham Lincoln once left me a $400 tip on a $3.54 tab once in the late summer of 1765. He's known to be a good tipper.

Jerry is a huge tipper. My friend is a server at a restaurant in NYC and she said Jerry came in once and tipped her like 50 bucks on a $70 meal.

The only celebrity I ever met in a restaurant was Ryan Leaf. I left him 30%.

dude literally gets money every time an episode of seinfeld plays

Good for jerry, a big tipper, he knows how blessed he is and wants to share that blessing, way to go jerry

Eric Clapton left me a $380 tip on a $380 tab many years ago. Then the next night I worked security at his show and during sound check he tipped me a $100 to run down the street and grab him two packs of cigarettes. Some celebs tip very well.

I love the Sarah Jessica Parker bit. They're both unquestionably right at the same time. She wanted to leave 35%, which is generous, but they're also a publicly known multi-millionaire and a billionaire. They can't leave $13.

Jerry Seinfeld has a net worth of 900 million dollars

That little bit of stand-up near the end about the bill was Jerry Seinfeld at his purest. He squeezed every last drop out of the scenario and delivered it perfectly.

"before you eat, money has absolutely no value" lol

I think Jerry is a genuinely generous person. Some people are and some aren’t, but if you are and you are famous what he said completely holds water. He wants him/her to rave about how great he was to him/her when he or she tells people he or she waited on him. He gets enjoyment from giving and seeing the reactions. I am not famous, but I love doing this for people in the serving business when I can. Bravo Jerry.

"What year is this!?" Haha three bucks for eggs, maaan that's awesome.

I can't stop laughing at the eye bulge! So damn funny.

That Kristen Wigg scene was shot at House Off Pies on Vermont in Los Feliz. It’s my go to breakfast spot. Yes, it is frozen in time, which is exactly why my family eats there every Saturday morning. Feed a family of 3 for 25 bucks; can’t beat it. Chicken and waffles go great with their strawberry milkshake.

That stand up bit at the end is so real! "Does this look right to you?" Lmao

"There is nothing finer than being in your diner"

I have heard this joke so many times and it still cracks me up . Thats Gold 👌 Jerry.. GOLD!

If I had his money, i'd be carrying around $100 bills just for tips.

I like the bit at the end. "I'm not hungry, why are we buying all this food?"

Little do people know that he’s putting the tipping on the “expenses” part of the show and Netflix are the ones paying all of it. Smart guy

Jerry exposing the cheapness of these millionaires is hilarious in itself

I'm in the restaurant business. Very happy to know Jerry tips well.

I do this bit all the time with my family ever since watching this episode.

Why did I crack up every single time he eye-bulged the check?

before i knew what i wanted to do with myself, i was a server at red lobster for 7 years. This really hit home. TY JERRY! all servers are very grateful that you actually give a damn

Nobody: Jerry when he sees the check : 😃😳😃

I just got back from Shanghai a few days ago. Their system is this: you order your food, pay for it and then it's served. I kind of prefer it.

There’s something surreal watching millionaires, even billionaires, vying to pay a 40$ bill.

I love how adorable Sarah is when he says "how many more times are you gonna laugh at that?"

That stand up about the check is classic, I told it to my wife the other day she just burst into laughter

Always be generous with tips. It will never go unappreciated.

The best one was Jerry and Kevin Hart, Kevin walked up to the tip jar (was pretty big) and just filled it right up with notes (Jerry followed dumping several notes of his own)

Has anyone else noticed that real Jerry pretty much has the "bad haircut" his character got 25 years ago?

I'm just waiting for Mr. Pink to show up.

Classic check bit. “Good? Showbiz good?” Love it

First part was funny Jerry “ no no I insist” “ I was just getting an aspirin” 😂

The sarah jessica parker one was hilarious

“I was just getting an aspirin” 0:10 😂😂

"Everyone's going to ask her - Oh my god, you waited on Jerry Seinfeld and Sara Jessica Parker... how much did they tip you... - What do you want her to say??"

I love the chemistry between him and Sarah

Wanted him to talk about the universal sign language for “ Cheque please” squirggling in the air.

Tipping shouldn't be a thing. It just enables bussinesses to underpay their workers + the customer ultimatly pays more.

when he said to her "tell me what is real' that was the truth...he knows his reality isn't real life.

I'm proud of Jerry. I am a believer in over tipping when a tip is earned.

Wow! That back and forth with Sara Jessica Parker was beautiful.

Jerry and SJP have crazy good chemistry.

As someone that has worked in the food industry their whole life, this man is a treasure.

Seinfeld never changed.. Slap some bad lighting and a wig onto todays S and he would look like the 1989 version. I guess having nearly a billion dollars is kinda a fountain of youth.

Looks like hes been pulling a Kramer. Walkin around, wallet-less... it seems he's getting by. 😆

LMFAO "What is this the story of the bill"

I worked my way through college as a cook back in the seventies, I way over tip, I'm not rich I just know what it's like to work your ass off......

Jerry's eye thing had me cackling for a good two minutes

Jerry Seinfeld really gives off that "please think I'm a good, im leaving a big tip" vibe Although he practically says it himself, its for showbiz

"im really glad we arent married" LOL so funny

This is classic Seinfeld. The funniest part of this video is the fact that a Seinfeld stand-up bit is included with some "CiCGC" clips.

That eye thing kills me

I've seen his "eyes bug out" bit 100 times, found this video today and LOLed again. He cannot not be funny. Also we tipped our bartender 95 bucks once, at a bar/grill in downtown Chicago, and a year later he remembered us. Tip ain't no dog's name.

Watching the Jordan special on ESPN and seeing Scottie Pippen again reminded me how tight Pippen was with a buck. He was known as "no tippin" Pippen.

Nice to see that he’s a good tipper; I lived in Las Vegas and every time there was a celebrity, my friends in the service industry always talked about how they tipped

the eye check bit is so simple yet so hilarious

Jerry Made his millions years ago! I am glad to see he tips well to the people who need a great tip!

My dad who died in 2017 was a multiple millionaire. He own a construction company for over 50 years.. Everyone knew him locally because his last name was on the trucks and cranes around town....Not to mention government contracts on roads and buildings....The local restaurants he ate at often even saved a table for 6 right by the servers area just for him...when I was young I use to met up with him and go to lunch on occasion. He always tipped 50% to 100%.. All his contracts and referrals for business he said cam with a price...Your reputation is everything in business. When your rich you can't afford to lose it and must pay a premium to those who are less fortunate.....shitting on minimum wage people acting like a king gets nothing but hatred. Even if the service isn't great he said he tipped. Seinfeld is worth 900 million dollars.....everyone knows he's a 1%ter. Anything less then 100% and rumors would damage he's reputation.

friend of mine provides security for a high priced lawyer. he said the lawyer leave insane tips just to watch the look on the waitress face.

Always straight up...Jerry always has the pulse of the situation...a brilliant comedian .... this bit is spot on....👏👌👍........

I sat at a table across from Jerry and Mario Joyner in a New York diner a few years back. They were deep in conversation so I didn’t bother them as much as I would have liked to have said hello. It was pretty funny watching the double takes of people seeing him. I have to say that he was very friendly to everyone who approached him.

I know Jerry is not a perfect human being but he's close. Grounded, gracious and grateful. With all the fame and wealth, it shines through.

"I'm not the last emperor. What's the damage?" One of the funniest people alive to be sure.

I thought $10 for a $40 meal would be a good tip?

It's an act of comedy. Seinfeld pays in advance of all his meetings. Class act

45 seconds is crazy to me. Amazing that diner allows horses 🐴

I served Jerry and his bill was 18 bucks And this man gave me 35 dollars extra.

Money doesn't exist to Jerry Seinfeld. He has more than most can imagine. Of course he throws down tonns.

$10 on $37 is fair, no matter how much money you have.

_"Somebody help me."_ _"I'll help you!"_

That Letterman bit was reused for one of those Seinfeld openers/closers.

I really like that Jerry scolds Sarah for leaving such a mediocre, albeit normal tip. What I think he means is, as a rich celebrity, give a rich celebrity sized tip. If I was in their position, I'd do the same. If the check was even small enough, I'd give more than the amount. Like a $5 check gets a $10 tip. Same with Seth: Jerry- How much tip did you give? Seth- It was a good one. Jerry- Was it "show business good?"

Eggs for $3.... welcome to several areas of rural Pennsylvania and a $1.85 cinnamon roll that could be a full meal for a small person.

Why are tips percentage based? It's the same work to carry a Fillet Steak to the table as a green salad yet they'd be expecting four times the tip!

"no you can't pay, I dont want to hear it" shit.. i forgot my wallet

My dad genuinely does the bug-eyes at the check all the time.

If it’s no skin off your nose to leave a big tip and you had good service, leave a big tip.

OKAY RU-vid I WATCHED

When I become as rich as I plan I wanna tip always double or more of the actual bill. If I can afford it and make someone's day, hell why not.

THE STORY OF THE BILL LOLOLOL JERRY IS THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME

❤️❤️❤️nothing is more disturbing when someone does not leave tip.😞love Jerry!!

I just love how some people in the comments think the tip should be based on how much money you make instead of a percentage of the bill.

I always skipped the Sarah Jessica Parker one. I watched it last because I had planned on never watching it. I’ve never watched any of her stuff except for Footloose. I have to say, she was so funny and delightful. What a sweet lady. And one of my favorite episodes of this show.

I’m getting I’m Not Norm vibes

I still remember an Archie Bunker line from years ago. It's when Nixon imposed price and wage controls. Archie said, "When is he going to impose tip controls?"

GOLD JERRY IT'S GOLD

I like what Jerry taught horse face.

Jerry: Places money on table. Female guest: That’s large! Jerry: And that’s just the tip.

He makes it up by forgetting his wallet when he's with male guests...

My favorite episode is the one with Sarah Jessica Parker. I loved the interaction between those two.

Our household income is about $98,000 before taxes and insurance. We left a $135 tip on a $78 dinner bill a few months ago. We usually leave 25% to over 100% tip at any traditional diner or restaurant. Buffet is usually $5 to $10 and on Christmas we leave $50 for each waitress. I eat last month at a Diner for breakfast while my wife was at the dentist. It was $18 and I left a $20 tip. I am retired, but my wife still works. We both grew up working at restaurants. It's not about bragging. It's about showing everybody is not the same... some people actually care.
