Everything That's Come Out About Bob Barker

Until Bob Barker retired in 2007, he seemed like the Energizer Bunny of game shows. Bob Barker was just always on, never stopping. But he wasn't perfect. Here's the deal with Bob Barker. Most of the film Happy Gilmore is goofily unrealistic, but Adam Sandler losing to Bob Barker in a golf course brawl actually captured reality to a tee. It might sound absurd that a game show host who looks like your grandfather's grandfather could force-feed a year's supply of knuckle sandwiches to a guy less than half his age, especially when that guy's supposed to be an ex-hockey player. But in real life Barker wouldn't have broken his hip trying to throw a rickety jab. He probably could have snapped most young whippersnappers in half. As the Sun-Sentinel explained, Barker, who was in his 70s when he filmed Happy Gilmore, received karate lessons from Chuck Norris for eight years. And according to the Washington Post, he attained a red belt in tang soo do karate training. So unless Sandler was trained by Bruce Lee as a child, he probably would have been clubbed like a golf ball in an actual fight with a disciple of Walker, Texas Ranger.
