Jerry Seinfeld Thackerville Concert Tickets

Having developed a taste for stand-up comedy while in college, Jerry Seinfeld took a chance one night in 1976 at an open mic at New York City's Catch a Rising Star.

His performance landed him on an HBO Rodney Dangerfield comedy special which led to a small, but recurring role on the TV show Benson in 1979.

Though he was fired from the role, Seinfeld had some momentum. In 1981, an appearance on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson turned into a regular thing, and stints on Late Night with David Letterman followed suit as Seinfeld toured the comedy circuit.

Jerry teamed up with Larry David in 1989 to craft The Seinfeld Chronicles for NBC, later shortened to Seinfeld. The show, based around a semi-fictional representation of Seinfeld himself, was a monster hit for nine seasons. Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Michael Richards, and Jason Alexander portrayed Jerry's friends on the show.

After the last episode of Seinfeld aired in 1998, Jerry returned to his stand-up roots and went back on tour. A comedy special soon followed in I'm Telling You for the Last Time. Jerry's comedic process was also captured in the documentary Comedian and collections of some of his routines have been released in book form.

Jerry also capitalized on his comedic talents by participating in various ad campaigns. First up, in 2004, was The Adventures of Seinfeld & Superman for American Express.
