(DC Pundit) – Jerry Seinfeld, the master of observational comedy, found himself in an impromptu stand-up routine with an unexpected heckler. The scene? Not a cozy New York diner, but the bustling streets outside Radio City Music Hall, where celebrities were gathering for “Saturday Night Live’s” 50th anniversary.
The 70-year-old comedy legend was minding his own business when approached by an Instagram provocateur known as “Subway DJ.” This social media influencer, clearly auditioning for his own 15 minutes of fame, asked Seinfeld for a selfie.
As Seinfeld, ever the good sport, posed for the picture, “Subway DJ” dropped his punchline: “Free Palestine,” he declared, flashing a peace sign that would make even George Costanza cringe. Undeterred by Seinfeld’s lack of reaction, he pressed on with a hopeful “Maybe?”
But Seinfeld fired back with a response as crisp as a freshly laundered puffy shirt: “I don’t care about Palestine.” And with that, he walked away with his wife Jessica, leaving “Subway DJ” to ponder the failed ambush.
I’ve always liked Jerry Seinfeld, but now I like him even more.

The activist, not quite ready to exit stage left, managed a weak “That’s sad” with an exaggerated frown that would put any failed actor to shame.
This encounter, brief as it was, highlighted Seinfeld’s unwavering support for Israel in the wake of the October 7, 2023, Hamas terror attack. While some celebrities might dodge this topic faster than Newman avoiding his mail route, Seinfeld has remained steadfast in his position, seemingly unbothered by the protests that have targeted him. Much like his iconic TV persona, he remains unflappable in the face of unexpected confrontations.
