Those cars just yelled manliness in that era, it seems.

My favorite role of his is the homeless caddy in Happy Gilmore.

That's a perfectly David Spade thing to do, lol.

I recognize the two on the left as professional skateboarder hoodlums from a documentary about the police academy.

My great grandfather lied about his age and joined the US cavalry at age 16, he was part general pershing's expeditionary force that chased after pancho villa in 1916-17. I dont think either side was "good" but it definitely is a fascinating period. After that he got sent to France for the first world war where he mostly supported artillery units hauling supplies but was briefly injured during a poison gas attack. He recovered and remained in France until after the end of the war. After a few unsavory episodes apparently he was seriously considering murdering one of his commanding officers and likely deserting but decided against as he had a battlefield conversion experience and decided to give up violence along with his alcoholism and whoring along with other vices he picked up as a cavalry man. He was discharged and returned home. I think he worked in a casket factory or something until the depression. At which time he got a job with a CCC project in colorado building a train trestle bridge. As part of the program he got a tax free property in the mountains of colorado somewhere near tabernash I believe. After the trestle project was done he built a cabin on his property and spent some time hunting and fishing there until he got a job in Englewood colorado where he stayed til he passed away on the early 90s. We still have a lot of his things, his cavalry uniform, spurs, photos, hunting equipment, I have his tools and revolver. For better or worse people seemed to be built different back then. Had fascinating lives.

Apatow was a terrible stand up.
I remember any time I would see him thinking how is this guy still around.

This is in Judd Apatow’s book “sick in the head.” It’s a really great read with tons of interviews with legendary comedians.
He and Sandler were roommates in LA before Sandler got the call for SNL.

I moved to LA when I was 18, and David Spade was my first celebrity encounter. I was in an elevator and he suddenly popped up just as the doors were closing. We stood next to each other in silence until finally, Spade let out a deep sigh, said "god dammit," and stepped off. Good times.

He definitely looks older right now. But it took a while

It really did feel quintessentially Spade. No idea what he was upset about, but I feel privileged I got to witness that moment. I really hope I run into him again one day so I can tell him this story
