I will always remember him as the guy who wanted George's calzone from Seinfeld.

  As a Red Sox fan, the comedic antics of his character on the show really helped humanize him.

  I'll always remember than SNL episode where he had to wear the Otto von Bismark-style WW1 helmet. He was a blast.

  According to Larry David, Steinbrenner himself was actually meant to appear playing himself in one episode of Seinfeld (The Finale, IIRC). They shot his scenes, but found in editing that his acting was so lousy that they had no choice but to edit him out. When Larry David called Steinbrenner to tell him that they could not use the scenes they had shot with him, the conversation went something like this (from memory): LD: Mr Steinbrenner, I'm afraid I have some bad news. GS: It's ok, I'm a big boy, I can take it.
