History YMMV / HappyGilmore

** "I saw two big, fat, naked bikers in the woods, off the 17th, having sex! How am I supposed to ''chip'' with that?!"

* OneSceneWonder: Bob Barker, as he utterly whoops Happy during their game.

*** OlderThanTheyThink: ''Film/{{UHF}}'' also has a scene where a character says "Guns don't kill people. ''I'' do.".

* IronWoobie: Between seeing his father get killed, getting [[DisproportionateRetribution beaten nearly to death for an on-the-job accident]], failing to make the hockey team, losing his girlfriend, and watching helplessly as Grandma gets evicted from her home, Happy has to endure a ''lot''. It's enough to turn him into a ''de facto'' {{Determinator}} hero, despite his {{Jerkass}} tendencies.

* HilariousInHindsight: One of the producers on ''Series/ThePriceIsRight'' today? [[NamesTheSame Adam Sandler.]] And he joined not long after this film got made.

* MemeticMutation: YER GONNA DIE CLOWN!

* FridgeLogic: Why was Shooter involved in the meeting between Happy and the president of the Pro Tour?
** [[WatsonianVersusDoylist So he could find out about Happy's Grandma's predicament.]]
* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: "YER GONNA DIE, CLOWN!!"
** The aforementioned fight with Barker and the guy calling Happy a "jackass" counts. Oh, and when Happy swears a lot during his first official golf tournament, telling Gary Potter to "play it where it lies" in the end of the rant.
--->The price is ''wrong'', [[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch bitch]]!
** Happy's "gift" for Chubbs:
-->'''Happy:''' Remember the gator that got your hand? ''[[spoiler: [[DisproportionateRetribution I got his head.]] ]]'' "
-->[[spoiler: (Cue dramatic zoom in on gator's head accompanied by dramatic music.)]]
-->'''Chubbs:''' [[spoiler: (screams and [[TooCoolToLive falls backwards out of a window]]) ]]
* SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}}: In the final tournament, Grandma tells Happy not to worry about her and just play the game. "I just want you to be happy, darling."

* SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome: Happy gets his clock cleaned at a Pro-AM tour by none other than [[Series/ThePriceIsRight Bob Barker]].
-->'''Happy Gilmore''': It wasn't my fault. There was this guy out there giving me crap, and it took every ounce of energy not to hit ''him''.
-->'''Shooter [=McGavin=]''': So instead you decide to headbutt Bob Barker. Oh, who ''won'' that fight, by the way?
** Happy beating up the orderly at the nursing home. To clarify — the guy made sad, elderly people work for ''hours'' to make quilts for him to sell and monitored their phone calls. When Happy takes his grandma out of this nightmare, he announces she told him all about it and BenStiller tries [=BSing=] his way out of it. Happy throws him out a window. Hell, yeah.
** [[TheDogBitesBack Then the old ladies he's been working to death beat him with purses!]]
** [[DeletedScene And some dumbass thought it was a good idea to CUT THIS from the theatrical film!]]
** It's intact on TV airings. The Theatrical and DVD version makes the orderly come off as a KarmaHoudini and left the whole subplot [[WhatHappenedToTheMouse unresolved]].
* NightmareFuel: The giant, creepy looking clown head on the mini golf course. [[DissonantLaughter It laughs at Happy every time he misses.]]
-->'''Happy:''' '''''[[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments YER GONNA DIE, CLOWN!!]]'''''
** The resthome/sweatshop.

* {{Squick}}: "I saw two big, fat, naked bikers in the woods, off the 17th, having sex! How am I supposed to ''chip'' with that?!"

* CompleteMonster: Ben Stiller's character.

** "GrizzlyAdams ''did'' have a beard."

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Mr. Larson. Being played by Richard Kiel helps.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Mr. Larson. Being played by Richaed Kiel helps.

* FridgeLogic: Why was Shooter involved in the meeting between Happy and the president of the Pro Tour?
