jerry seinfeldThe #1 celeb has become the target of pro-Palestinian protesters – for the second time in a week they walked in on her in public… this time repeatedly interrupting her stand-up routine, and fighting with other audience members done.
TMZ obtained this video of the moment things got heated Saturday night inside Crisler Hall in Norfolk, VA — almost immediately after Jerry took the stage, a protester stood up, and started yelling, “Free Gaza!”
The lone protestor also shouted and pointed at the audience, saying they should be ashamed of themselves.
As most of the crowd began booing, another man jumped up and grabbed the protester, wrestling with him and headbutting him.
Security guards immediately responded and broke up the clash, and escorted the protestor from the venue – all of which created a scene that seemed familiar to the audience, as they began chanting, “Jerry, Jerry, JERRY!!!”
Sweet double entendre… and RIP bud,
As for Seinfeld…he was cool as a cucumber the whole time, especially when the fight broke out. He added some humor by saying to the crowd… “I’d hate to have a little Jew to spice up the show.”
According to witnesses, Jerry told everyone not to scold the man as he had every right to protest – and there were other protesters throughout the night.

We’re told 8 protesters disrupted Jerry’s 1.5 hour show – but each time security cleared the people away without any issues.
And Jerry never panicked. He took it in stride and completed his performance with a standing ovation.
