79 years old (Born on September 15, 1945)
Happy Birthday, Ron Shelton! You're the MVP of sports cinema—thanks for teaching us that baseball wisdom comes best from a catcher named Crash Davis and basketball hustles are funniest when Woody Harrelson's involved. Your films like "Bull Durham," "White Men Can't Jump," and "Tin Cup" have given us timeless laughs, unforgettable quotes, and proof that sometimes life's greatest lessons come wrapped in sweatbands.Here's hoping your birthday is filled with fewer mulligans than Roy McAvoy needed on hole 18—and may you always jump higher than Billy Hoyle claimed he could. Cheers to another year of cinematic slam dunks!
