An Olympic hockey team pulled off a miracle. An aging Heisman hero achieved stardom after a decade of disappointment. A 98-year-old baseball team defied its hard-luck history to win the World Series. And a sleeper of a golf flick went on to become one of the most beloved sports movies ever. Has it really been 25 years since Caddyshack?
