Today is a special day for all of us as it’s the 25th anniversary of Adam Sandler’s classic movie “Happy Gilmore,” which was an inspirational film about a young man who picked up golf to try to win enough money to save his grandmother’s house.
I won’t drop any spoiler alerts in case you haven’t seen it, but I’ll just say that the young man, named Happy Gilmore, did pretty well on the Tour.
Gilmore did it all with an unconventional swing, too, that has since been attempted by every weekend hacker who has ever stepped foot on a golf course.
Today Adam Sandler celebrated the anniversary by attempting his own Happy Gilmore drive and it sounded like he crushed it:
Happy loves you all! Thanks for everything! pic.twitter.com/p1aY9JcFWh

Yup, Happy Gilmore has still got it. Even after all of these years.
