C. Thomas Howell, the actor who played Ponyboy in the shot-in-Tulsa film “The Outsiders,” hears “Stay Gold” everywhere he goes.
Steve Hytner, who played Kenny Bania in “Seinfeld,” can relate.
“No doubt,” he said. “If I walk outside my front door, somebody’s going to yell, ‘That’s gold, Jerry! Gold!’ That’s going to happen. So I might as well embrace it because it would be stupid to make it a negative.”
Here’s a positive development if you are a “Seinfeld” fan: The Tulsa Drillers are welcoming Hytner to ONEOK Field because they designated Thursday, Aug. 14 as “Sitcom Night.”
A self-described sports nut who loves MLB’s Mets and the NFL’s Giants, Hytner will throw out a ceremonial first pitch and will be available for autographs and photographs.
