Seinfeld: The Assman Tumbler

The Episode: “The Assman”

In Season 4, Episode 10, Jerry Seinfeld crosses paths with a proctologist named George Costanza. When Jerry spots a blue tumbler on George’s desk, he can’t help but notice the name “Assman” emblazoned on it. George explains that the tumbler is a promotional giveaway from his practice, which specializes in rectal exams.

Jerry and his friends, including Elaine Benes, Kramer, and Cosmo Kramer, are immediately drawn to the vulgarity of the tumbler. They share a series of side-splitting jokes and misadventures involving the object, including trying to pass it off as a prestigious award.
