Explain Festivus

I never watched Seinfeld, so I don't really know what it is.  I don't live completely under a rock, so I've heard "Festivus for the rest of us".  But I get the feeling there's a lot more to it than that catch phrase, so please fill me in.

  • If I remember correctly, George's father was too cheap to shop before Christmas, so he invented Festivus, which takes place after Christmas when trees are free and presents are on sale.  Also, I think you had to wrestle one another or something.  Only I'm pretty sure they were Jewish, so I don't know if it was a Hannukah replacement instead of a Christmas replacement.  Or both.
