The TV show Seinfeld ended 20 years ago, but the comedian is as popular today as ever. That was evident as crowds of people lined up to catch Jerry Seinfeld’s one night only performance at the Coronado Friday night.

"I’ve never seen it this busy," said Julie Bounds who came to see the show.

The sold-out show is Seinfeld’s first performance back in Rockford since 2015. The Coronado says many of those who bought tickets came from the Chicago area. Those from the Rockford area who came to watch the performance said they couldn’t miss the show in their hometown.

"Seinfeld has always been someone to make me laugh and make me have a good time. I’ve enjoyed the show and I’m just so excited to see him and happy that he’s here in Rockford," said Bounds.

"He can make a packet of Equal funny. It’s his delivery. He’s a creative genius," said Bradley Bauer of Oregon.
