Three Seinfeld episodes and a new Seinfeld documentary will be screened at Hunters Point South Park this Saturday.

The event, which is being organized by Hulu and the Hunters Point Parks Conservancy, was originally scheduled for July 28 but had to be rescheduled due to rain.

Hulu, which retains the exclusive streaming rights to the comedy, will be showing three iconic episodes of the sitcom as well as the theatrical premiere of the documentary short They’re Real & They’re Spectacular: Seinfeld Super Fans and the Summer of George.

The event is a homecoming celebration for Jerry and George, who both grew up in Queens, and the borough is heavily featured in the show.

Hulu will be screening the Season 8 finale “The Summer of George” and two episodes voted on by fans on Hulu’s social media.

The event will also feature Hulu collectible giveaways, “frolfing” (frisbee-golf), a Seinfeld cast look-alike-contest complete with Elaine dance-off, show-themed food, photo opportunities and more.

The first 200 guests will also receive a Seinfeld limited edition art print.

The event is free and is open to all. The festivities will start at 6 PM and screenings begin at dark.

Red Storm stars reflect on historic season with fans dreaming of deep run during March Madness

In just his second year at the helm of the St. John’s Red Storm, basketball Hall of Famer Rick Pitino was named Big East Coach of the Year on Wednesday after leading his squad to its first outright regular season conference championship in 40 years and matched a program record 27 regular season victories. The Johnnies lost just four games all season by seven points combined. St. John’s also went an undefeated 18-0 at home for the first time since 1931-32. It earned them their highest national ranking (No. 6) since the 1990-91 season.

Pitino is the first St. John’s coach to be named the Big East’s Coach of the Year since Lou Carnesecca, who died on Saturday, Nov. 30, at age 99 and just five weeks shy of his 100th birthday.
