My family and I were in New York City for our traditional Thanksgiving trip and passed John O'Hurley, Seinfeld's J. Peterman, on Madison Ave., pushing a stroller. It was probably a Mongolian horsehair stroller, come to think of it. It was pretty awesome.
Well, my friend Jeff Boden clued me in to the fact that the character was based on an actual person, John Peterman, who went to Holy Cross (Jeff's and my brother's alma mater) and really has a catalogue named J. Peterman. Turns out it went bankrupt in '99 but has resurfaced in part thanks to John O'Hurley, which explains the Mongolian horsehair stroller.
