Summary

The next time you're on the golf course and you hear the expression "Be the Ball", "You're The Lama", or "Bushwood Style"- the chances are good that those expressions came from the 1980 movie Caddyshack, starring Bill Murray, Chevy Chase, Rodney Dangerfield, Ted Knight, and "Gopher". Caddyshack has become a cult favorite among golfers and comedy lovers. In this story we discuss the main actors and their backgrounds, the making of the movie, and (loosely, because it was loose) the plot. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did researching it.
