Poor George Costanza. He can't even defeat the quarter wasting, carpal-tunnel-suffering, asthma-inhaling champions of the arcade.

Twin Galaxies, the official video game scorekeeper made famous in the King of Kong documentary, has recorded a new high score for "Frogger" that tops George's 860,630 score in "The Frogger" episode of Seinfeld.

Pat Laffaye of Westport, Connecticut earned 896,980 points in one game of "Frogger". This gives him the highest ranking on the "Frogger" scoreboard and makes him the first person in gaming history to overcome the infamous "Costanza score."

The saga of video game champion Steve Wiebe, the man made famous by the wonderful documentary film The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters, is one that will be told on mountain tops by the elders of the tribes to young men as they pass into adulthood.

Wiebe struggled to achieve the success he so richly deserved for chasing the Donkey Kong world champion title from the Twin Galaxies score organization, due in part to the underhanded and downright evil efforts of reigning champion and Donkey Kong douchebag Billy Mitchell. Even though he has surpassed Mitchell's scores since the release of the film, Mitchell always seemed to be one barrel behind him, making Wiebe even more of an iconic hero to geeks, spazzes, dweebs and everyone else.

So at this year's E3 video game expo, the G4 Network gave Wiebe and his many fans the chance to reclaim the title for humble people everywhere by broadcasting his nine hour attempt live on television. It may sound like something that could make your eyes bleed no matter how close you were sitting to the TV, but it became hands down one of my 10 greatest sporting broadcasts of the year. And this is from a network that runs reruns of both COPS and Cheaters.
