The Brooklyn Cyclones, the minor league baseball team and the High-A affiliate of the New York Mets, held a "Seinfeld" themed Elaine dance contest.

"Seinfeld," the iconic sitcom from 1990s, which ran from 1989-1998, is among the most popular American TV series. In 2022, the show celebrated 33 years since its first airing.

At the theme night at the ballpark, among a slew of related games and activities, the Elaine dance contest was the most notable.

In one episode of the show, Elaine's character on the sitcom, played by Julia Louis-Dreyfus, shows off what she thinks are awesome moves. Now, the mention of Elaine conjures up terrible and awful dancing skills.

Participants in the dance contest had to dress up like Elaine and shake their legs like she would do it.

Check out the participants prancing just like Elaine's character.
