Sandler, 58, donned the same Bruins jersey that his character wears in the iconic '90s film Happy Gilmore, as he was introduced on stage by NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman. Sandler instantly appeared on the massive screen behind Bettman, effortlessly slipping into character. "My name is Happy Gilmore, how are you?" he said, and was immediately met with a collective cheer from the crowd.
The character of Happy Gilmore is a Bruins fan largely because Adam Sandler is a Bruins fan in real life. Born in Brooklyn, New York, but raised in New Hampshire, Sandler developed an allegiance to his home team early on and drew inspiration in creating his famed move character.
Sandler's revival of the volatile and often immature, yet beloved character coincides with the upcoming release of Happy Gilmore's long-awaited sequel, Happy Gilmore 2. In the film, Sandler reprises his titular role alongside his illustrious cast mates Julie Bowen, who plays Virginia Venit, and Christopher McDonald, in the role of Gilmore's rival, Shooter McGavin. The film is headed to Netflix on July 25, 2025.
