“Happy Gilmore,” released in 1996, was Sander and Herlihy’s second movie, following “Billy Madison.” Sandler was just exiting “Saturday Night Live.” Herlihy was Sandler’s roommate at New York University and became a lawyer before Sandler got him to stick to writing comedy. (You might remember the “Herlihy Boy” sketch .)

He's back on the green and things are about to get wild. Adam Sandler stars in the highly anticipated sequel, 'Happy Gilmore 2,' out this week.

The Netflix sequel filmed extensively in New Jersey, where some of the biggest stars in the world gathered to hang out with Sandler and company.
