“Big hitter, the Lama.” In the international news of groundbreaking significance department: The Dalai Lama has never heard that utterance from Carl Spackler in Caddyshack. Nor has he seen the iconic Harold Ramis film.

Kudos to Bret Baier of Fox for wrapping up an interview with His Holiness with the question: “Have you ever seen the movie Caddyshack?”

Because, really, we needed to know.

For the few uninitiated, here’s the scene in which Bill Murray, as groundskeeper Carl Spackler, relates his experience looping for the Lama.

This has to be devastating for Murray, coming on the heels of finding out that his own son, an assistant coach for Xavier’s men’s basketball team, hasn’t seen the movie either.

Here’s a clip of Baier posing the question. The pro move would have been to queuing up the YouTube video above to show the Dalai Lama in the event that he says no, but at least we now have an answer to this vital question.
