As the stars of 'Happy Gilmore' reunite for a long overdue sequel, Adam Sandler is paying tribute to one original cast member.

In "Happy Gilmore," Adam Sandler's angry golfer fought the ball-eating gator. But when alligator actor Morris died at 80, Sandler paid respect.

Happy Gilmore himself, Adam Sandler, confirmed Morris' death with a heartfelt message to the reptile on social media. It's unclear exactly how old the gator was, but TMZ Sports noted estimates had him being at least 80 years old based on his length and number of teeth lost.
