Audiences who don&#8217;t immediately switch over to something else at the film&#8217;s conclusion will be treated to a fun mid-credits scene that acts as a sort of epilogue to the film.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_8-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> After restoring his reputation, getting sober, sending his daughter to ballet school, and saving golf from the clutches of Frank Manatee&#8217;s Maxi Golf league, Happy (<a href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/person\/adam-sandler\/\" data-component=\"link\" data-source=\"inlineLink\" data-type=\"internalLink\" data-ordinal=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Adam Sandler<\/a>) is last seen waving goodbye to his kids and taking a moment to acknowledge his heavenly ghosts.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_10-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> The mid-credits scene, then, tells a bit about what happened to Manatee (<a href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/movies\/2019\/12\/26\/uncut-gems-kevin-garnett-safdie-brothers\/\" data-component=\"link\" data-source=\"inlineLink\" data-type=\"internalLink\" data-ordinal=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Benny Safdie<\/a>) and the fallout with Maxi Golf. It starts with a news broadcast \u2014 Sports Hole With Pat Daniels \u2014 telling viewers that &#8220;the bad news just keeps coming&#8221; for Maxi and its founder.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_14-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> The host, Daniels (played by Dan Patrick), says, &#8220;Since the spectacular failure of the Maxi Golf League, the popular Maxi Sports Drink has been recalled after complaints it caused irreversible halitosis, gingivitis, and a new condition they\u2019re calling tongue rot.&#8221; On screen, pictures of Manatee with an alarming-looking bright green tongue pop up.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_16-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> Daniels adds that the news station has not been able to locate Manatee for comment, and deadpans, &#8220;Yeah, I would run, too, if I gave half the world midnight booty breath.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_18-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> At this, the camera pans out to reveal that the broadcast is being watched by a still-incarcerated Scottie Scheffler, who got arrested earlier in the film for punching a heckler during the Maxi Golf tournament. Clearly not bothered, Scheffler is lounging on a bench when a guard walks up and asks him, &#8220;Hey Scheffler, it&#8217;s been three days, you sure you don&#8217;t wanna make that call?&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p> Scottie Scheffler as himself in &#8216;Happy Gilmore 2&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>Netflix<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_21-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;It depends. What\u2019s for dinner?&#8221; Scheffler tells him. When the guard informs him that chicken fingers are on the menu, Scheffler decides to &#8220;stick around another night.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_23-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> Scheffler&#8217;s fictional legal troubles in the film are a not-so-subtle nod to his real-life. The world&#8217;s top golfer was <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/scottie-scheffler-police-arrest-louisville-cf7f59fc48d223083bb71d272d139050\" data-component=\"link\" data-source=\"inlineLink\" data-type=\"externalLink\" data-ordinal=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">arrested in May 2024 during the PGA championships<\/a> after an incident with police directing traffic. All charges against him were dropped days later, with the prosecutor in the case saying that Scheffler&#8217;s characterization of the incident as &#8220;an unfortunate misunderstanding&#8221; during a \u201cchaotic situation\u201d was &#8220;corroborated by the evidence.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_25-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;I wish to put this incident behind me, and I hope (the officer) will do the same. Police officers have a difficult job, and I hold them in high regard,\u201d Scheffler said at the time.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_27-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> <strong>Want more movie news?
