Former NBC and ESPN host Michelle Beadle may have griped about forking over $132 to get across town in the middle of an NYC blizzard Saturday night, but that's nothing compared to what Jerry Seinfeld's wife - cookbook author Jessica Seinfeld - paid Uber to make sure the the couple's young children attended social obligations despite the night's harsh weather.
Jessica posted a screenshot to her Instagram account Sunday after the surge pricing controversy, writing: "UBER charge, during a snowstorm (to drop one at Bar Mitzvah and one child at a sleepover.) #OMG#neverforget #neveragain #real" and revealing the insane price she paid:
If anyone can afford it, it's Seinfeld, whose husband is worth a reported $800 million - but we're still glad to see that even she was freaked out by the insane up to 8.25 times more than usual pricing.
Comments on the photo confirmed many in the Seinfeld's social circuit were forced to pay similar exorbitant fees:
Complaints about the astronomical fares went viral on Twitter, with many users posting screenshots of Uber ride receipts.
