Will Ferrell’s portrayal of Buddy in the beloved holiday film “Elf” continues to resonate with fans, and recently, he brought Buddy back to life in a humorous way at an NHL game. Dressed in his iconic Elf costume, Ferrell was spotted in the stands at the Crypto.com Arena, enjoying snacks and drinks while sporting a surprisingly disgruntled expression.
In the original finale of “Elf,” Buddy, alongside his wife Jovie and their daughter, reunited with Papa Elf in the North Pole. However, the recent appearance of Ferrell as Buddy took a different, adult turn, showcasing a more jaded version of the once-joyful character. Witnesses noted that as he watched the L.A. Kings play against the Philadelphia Flyers, his mood seemed to reflect the game’s tension. Fortunately for Ferrell, the Kings rallied to clinch a victory, providing a bright moment for the actor.
