Hey everybody! We're all gonna get laid!
This is the most important news you will hear all day! A festival dedicated to the all-time classic film, Caddyshack will take place next summer. So you have a little over a half a year before you get your Cinderella story.
The festival will be put on by Will Russell, the man who helped co-found Lebowski Fest, a festival and bowling event based off the cult film, The Big Lebowski that's occurred since 2002. “We drove out to this golf course in Louisville, and this place is perfect,” Russell stated, "I think it’s going to be a huge hit." Russell has the goal of getting cast members to arrive at the festival, just like Lebowski Fest drew in those actors.
The first annual Caddyshack Fest will take place at a golf course in Louisville, KY and will be devoted to the celebration of the 1980 National Lampoon film that featured the creativity of not only comedic actors like Bill Murray, Chevy Chase, Ted Knight, and Rodney Dangerfield. But also utilized the behind-the-scenes talent like Harold Ramis, Brian Doyle-Murray, and Doug Kenny.
So far, it's being reported that Caddyshack Fest will feature golf cart races, costume contests, and a dance party. A portion of the proceeds from the event will to to the Everything Will Be OK Project which is a mental health non-profit.
Here's to hoping Caddyshack Fest will be a huge success for Russell and his crew, at least get ya know, something for the effort.
