Travis Kelce and his brother Jason channel Happy Gilmore!
On Thursday, August 29, the brothers starred in a hilarious video they shared on New heights with Jason and Travis Kelce and Jason’s Instagram pages, where they recreated a scene from the classic 1996 comedy.
The clip began with Travis, 34, on the golf course wearing a white hat, green polo shirt, white shorts and trainers.
“Hey, good luck,” the Kansas City Chiefs tight end said with a smile before turning to the ball to prepare for his first snap. “Are you too good for your home?” he added, quoting Adam Sandler’s title character.
Travis then copied Gilmore’s famous run and kick technique as the video cut to a scene from the film showing the shot flying through the air and then later hitting a neighbor in the head.

Then Jason, 36, made a hilarious appearance with his head superimposed on the mover character (played by William Sasso in the film) who tells Happy, “You hit that guy!”
The clip then cuts to Travis’ head placed on Happy as he replies, “He shouldn’t have been standing there.”
Although the hilarious video was an edited version of the actual scene, it was good practice for the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, who has a role in Sandler’s upcoming sequel, Happy Gilmore 2.
The actor and director, 57, first revealed the news on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon On August 20, he continued to discuss the Travis episode during an appearance on The Kelce Brothers New heights podcast on August 28.
