Travis and Jason Kelce Recreate Iconic ‘Happy Gilmore’ Scene in Hilarious Spoof Video: ‘You Hit That Guy!’

The bit on the Kelce’s “New Heights” podcast came after Adam Sandler revealed that Travis will have a role in “Happy Gilmore 2.”

In case you haven’t heard, Super Bowl winning Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is headed to the big screen. Adam Sandler confirmed last week that Kelce will have an unspecified role in the upcoming sequel to the comedian’s iconic 1996 sports comedy Happy Gilmore.

And on Wednesday (August 28), Kelce and his other brother, New Heights podcast co-star and retired Super Bowl champ Jason Kelce, teased the footballer’s cameo by recreating one of the iconic scenes from the golf goof. In the clip, Travis, 34, is on a golf course getting ready to haul off on a tee shot in run-up Happy fashion. “Hey Happy,” Travis says as Jason responds off screen with a quote from Sandler’s title character, “You too good for your home?”

Travis then takes a quick step-up to address the ball with maximum effort as the shot cuts to a scene from the original movie of the ball zooming through the air for way too long over a neighborhood before doinking an unsuspecting homeowner on the head as he shakes his fist, shouting, “you boys are gonna pay for that!”

After getting properly beaned and stumbling about, Jason — whose head is superimposed on the moving company worker played by actor Will Sasso in the original movie — shouts, “You hit that guy!” Then, with Travis’ head plopped onto Happy’s movie body, he shrugs and says, “He shouldn’ta been standing there.”

Last week during a visit to the Tonight Show, Sandler confirmed that Kelce would have some role in the anticipated sequel. “Travis has… he mentioned it, so we have a nice something for Travis,” Sandler said of the gig that Kelce has publicly dreamed out. “He’s gonna come by. He’s a very nice guy. You guys would love him in real life. What a big, handsome guy. Funny and cool as hell. He’s a stud and he’s so funny.”

Kelce seemed to manifest the cameo in May on New Heights — which just scored a major nine-figure new distribution deal — when he said he was a “huge fan of the Sandman” and would do “anything” to get a role in the film.

Speaking to the brothers on New Heights this week, Sandler opened up about how the role came together. “The whole thing was to get to hang out with Travis!… We were talking about you playing my son while we were writing it literally like, six months ago,” Sandler said. “We were like, ‘Imagine if Travis was my first baby, how funny that would be.’” Travis also said he’s been working on the patented way Gilmore addresses the ball, promising that he thinks he’s “got the swing down” since going out to practice after seeing Sandler on the Tonight Show.

“The scene you’re doing is with so many great golfers,” Sandler teased. “It’s gonna be amazing. You’re gonna be funny as hell.”
