Travis Kelce’s quirky habit on Happy Gilmore 2 set revealed by producer

Travis Kelce's quirky habit on Happy Gilmore 2 set revealed by producer

Travis Kelce reportedly made sure he got in his beauty sleep in between takes of the Happy Gilmore 2. 

The NFL star joined a host of famous faces making cameos in the long-awaited sequel to Adam Sandler’s 1996 golf cult classic, joining the likes of Bad Bunny, world No 1 Scottie Scheffler and Eminem. 

And while the Kansas City Chiefs тιԍнт end may be used to taking the hits on the football field, it appears a film set is just as taxing. 

Chad Mumm, a co-producer on the movie and ‘Full Swing’ executive, revealed that the three-time Super Bowl winner would constantly sneak in naps throughout a day on set for the hit comedy.

‘The only thing he had in his trailer was this mᴀssive like Eight Sleep bed and he would literally like go take a nap after filming,’ Mumm said of Kelce on his Vanity Index podcast with Bachelor Nation alum Wells Adams. 

‘He’d film a scene and then everyone would go to lunch,’ he added. ‘And instead of lunch he would just take an hour long nap and then he would go, come back, film again. Then go back to sleep.’

Mumm, who has worked on Netflix’s behind-the-scenes golf series for three seasons, also revealed that he was responsible for bringing 27 professional golfers to set, admitting he only missed out on two names: Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods.  

Kelce shared the screen with musician Bad Bunny, interacting with some of the biggest names in golf, including Xander Schauffele, Nick Faldo and the legendary Jack Nicklaus, as he played his role as a clubhouse waiter to perfection. 

And Sandler, who reprised his role as the тιтular character, had nothing but praise for both Kelce and the rapper at the film’s New York City premiere. 

‘They were both so confident and so funny. They’re gonna go on and do whatever the hell they want,’ Sandler told The Hollywood Reporter of the pair.

‘But I’d love to do something with them again, because I got very friendly with them, and I love them both.’

Kelce had long been excited about his cameo in the film and producer Jack Giarraputo revealed to Daily Mail last week that it wasn’t hard to lure him to set. 

‘Different cameos came in different ways,’ Giarraputo said.

‘With Travis, he was wearing the hat around and saying, “I heard there’s a sequel, I want to be in it!” So that was helpful,’ he continued.

‘Adam saw Bad Bunny on SNL and thought, “He’s funny, we should put him in the movie.”

While Kelce couldn’t attend the premiere due to NFL preseason kicking off,  he still made sure to host a screening of the film from training camp. 

Kelce debuted the Netflix comedy hit to his Chiefs teammates at Missouri Western State University.

Kelce greeted attendees of the casual event with ‘Happy Gilmore’ merch and could be seen holding a putter before the movie started, in a video posted by the Chiefs to X.

It wasn’t long before Kelce’s teammates saw him on screen and were left delighted by his performance.

The screening was also attended by motivational speaker Damon West , a reformed crime boss who was invited by coach Andy Reid to speak with the team.

West posed with Reid, Kelce and quarterback Patrick Mahomes for a pH๏τo which he later posted to social media.
