Let's make this birthday one to remember.

70 years old (Born on September 15, 1954)

Happy Birthday, Brad Leland! Whether you're wheeling and dealing as Buddy Garrity in "Friday Night Lights," or bravely navigating the chaos of films like "The Patriot" and "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre," you've always brought charm, humor, and unforgettable charisma to every role. Your portrayal of Dillon's favorite booster remains legendary—no one else could make football politics so hilariously relatable.

Here's hoping your birthday is filled with more touchdowns than fumbles—and fewer chainsaws than usual! Keep shining bright on screen; we can't wait for your next memorable performance. Cheers to another year that's even better than a Panthers' championship season!
