“People will kill each other for a parking space in New York because they think, 'If I don't get this one, I may never get a space.’ You know? ‘I'll be circling for months until somebody goes out to the Hamptons.’ I think because everyone in New York City knows there's gotta be way more cars than parking spaces. You see cars driving in New York all hours of the night. It's like musical chairs, except everybody sat down around 1964.”
— Jerry Seinfeld, Seinfeld, Season 3: The Parking Space
