How do you find humor in everyday life? 

When you think of golf, comedy isn’t the first thing that comes to mind.

Caddyshack lightened the tension of golf in a way that had rarely been done before.

Without Caddyshack leading the way, sports comedy movies such as Happy Gilmore, Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story, and Major League, may never have come to fruition. 

One of my favorite things about comedy movies is that they always point to the bright side of a situation.

After the credits roll, I’m usually in a happier, more optimistic mood than when I started the film.
