Watson is a cool guy with a likable social media presence. Fans love Bubba for good reason.
Who could forget him pulling Happy Gilmore at the 2012 Ryder Cup, encouraging typically demure golf fans to crank up the noise during his tee shot.
His trick shots and long drives are a thing of YouTube legend.
The Bubba Watson Waffle House selfie invoked memories of Phil Mickelson wearing the green jacket to Krispy Kreme the morning after his 2010 Masters win.
I honestly never like Phil Mickelson until this picture of him wearing his Masters jacket at Krispy Kreme emerged. pic.twitter.com/7Ha8AtZrXz

Unlike many athletes, golfers have no problem appearing like the everyman, taking their kids out for donuts.
Watson shot a 69 during the fourth round to secure victory. He then took the winner’s check to Waffle House.
$1.6 million dollars would buy quite the stack.
Watson held of a strong challenge from 20 year old Jordan Spieth who fell three strokes shy in his effort to become the youngest Masters champion ever. Bubba Watson celebrated his second major victory with his toddler Caleb by his side.
What a cutie.
