TIL of a strange coincidence between an episode of Seinfeld and the OJ Simpson muders.
Senfeld S5E9: Because Elaine is dating a man with the same name as New York serial killer Joel Rifkin, she wants him to change his name to a less embarrassing one and suggests O.J.; about six months after this episode aired, O.J. Simpson was arrested and charged with the murder of his ex-wife and her friend.
