Seinfeld NBA prediction came true again as bettor cashed in on Spurs-Cavaliers score guess

Seinfeld predicted the NBA future again, and a bettor cashed in.

One bettor has to be thankful that he’s a Seinfeld fan after nailing an NBA score prediction thanks to the classic sitcom.

Twitter user Michael Mulholland shared this week that he won a correct score prediction for Monday night’s Cleveland Cavaliers/San Antonio Spurs game based on a clip from an old Seinfeld episode.

In the segment from the 1991 episode “The Heart Attack,” Jerry Seinfeld consults with George Costanza’s holistic healer Tor Eckman (actor Stephen Tobolowsky) about something written on a piece of paper.

Eckman reads the score of a Cavs-Spurs game that was happening around that time. The final score that Eckman tells Jerry? Cleveland 117, San Antonio 109.

Seinfeld rolled his eyes at Eckman’s interpretation, but it’s a good thing this bettor didn’t.

Mulholland won $681.21 from FanDuel predicting the score of the game, with Cleveland netting 117 points against San Antonio’s 109. His prediction had +26000 odds.

So Eckman really knew what he was talking about all those years ago.

However, it’s not the first time. The 1991 Seinfeld prediction actually came true in 2019 when the Cavs beat the Spurs, 117-109, in overtime.

Bettors might want to comb through the rest of the Seinfeld catalog to see what other predictions might be in store. Just don’t look for any Yankees analysis from Costanza.
