What's your favorite Seinfeld moment?

Ten years ago today, millions of people were bracing themselves for what would be the final episode of Seinfeld. Technically, it didn't go off the air until May 14th, 1998 (do you remember where you were and what you were doing that fateful day?), but by mid-March, everyone knew the end was nigh, and just the thought of a final episode caused diehards a lot of angst.

A decade later, and still not a month passes at my office where someone doesn't evoke Seinfeld—either quoting an episode (actually, generally mis-quoting, but whatever), recalling an episode ("How about the one where"¦") or referring to a zany situation as "something right out of a Seinfeld episode."

Poor Larry David. Around my office, every episode of Curb is parsed for Seinfeld moments and invariably held up against the more famous show—the barometer, as some call it—causing many to take sides as to whether or not each was better or worse than an episode of Seinfeld. Rumor has it, in Detroit a fight once broke out over just such an argument and one man pulled a plastic soup spoon. Granted, it's just a rumor, but coming from Detroit, you sorta have to believe it.

Anyway, I thought it would be fun to let you all get it out of your systems once and for all. I mean, honestly, it is going on 10 years. What stage of grieving are we in here? Denial? So let us know your favorite Seinfeld moment already.

There were so many classics, everyone has his or her own favorite. Let's get a list going and see which one or two pops up the most often.

After the jump, you'll find a whole long list of curious facts about the show, via Ivy's Seinfeld Page. Many you probably know, but still more you probably don't.
