Sloppy Joe (Hobo Joe)
The Maestro
discussed before on ats:
I've always wondered if one the homeless in The
Bookstore was a real homeless guy. As I recall it, his name in the
credits looks like Sloppy Joe or something like this. Is that a joke
or the nickname of a real homeless guy hired as an extra?

himnself Potato Salad. And the other one ran off without saying
anything, so he's not in the credits. Therefore, Potato Salad ought to
be Hobo Joe, and his real name would be Sloppy Joe? The Government!

From "The Andrea Doria":
(Scene cuts to Jerry on Newman's mail route. He's walking along a city
street with a mail cart. He stops in front of a store owner sweeping the
sidewalk.)
JERRY (hands him some mail): There you go. Merry Chirstmas!
OWNER: Mail on Sunday?
JERRY (shrugs): Oops. (Continues walking along the route, whistling. Hands a
newspaper to a homeless bum on the street, then keeps walking)
Look close... was that our old friend Potato Salad that Jerry handed the
newspaper to?

random. A second bum just walked ayway without saying anything, and bum
number three ran away with their riksja. I think he was hobo Joe.

Why not just call the guy Potato Salad, though? It's easier than saying "the
homeless guy in the episode with the rickshaw...no, not Rusty, the other one
without a shirt."
But then again, that could cause some confusion between him and Vegetable
Lasagna...

I will. My guess is that Sloppy Joe is a homeles form L.A. who
happened to wander around the places where Seinfeld were often
shooting outside scenes and they got to know him.
