Did he just want to show off his badass karate moves?
Was he putting a feeler out?

I don't think he was a ghey. I think it was just some weird California prank. You know how those Californians are.

Sunshine is the patron saint of handicapables. That was the kiss of handicap that sealed Gary's fate.

The more you know...

this is an underrated movie discussion topic. i have talked about this with many different people and no one ever knows.

every time this movie is brought up, i ask if sunshine was gay or not and no one has ever been adamant about it either way in response. i have no idea and i cant decide.

i lean towards "just messing with everyone/being the kid from cali" but no clue.

Interesting. It is assumed that people know what the frick you're talking about without resorting to Google.

I didn't have to Google. But then again, I've probably seen Remember the Titans 100 times.

IRL Ronnie Bass claims it never happened and married and had 3 kids. So it was probably just a play on what Bertier called him when he first showed up. Without knowing that though, I'd think the movie implied quite a bit that he was a little light in the loafers.

Just exploring another option.... Get it? Because they ran the veer.


Or maybe he was just messing with their minds, like Petey thought.

He was a game managing gay boy that was on a very talented team.

I don't want to talk about football. LSU just lost and I'm melting, drowning in my drunken tears

Yeah...according to those who were there at spring camp, Sunshine never kissed anyone. This movie took so many liberties with the actual events that you would think they didn't bother to read about what happened other than the fact that they won the state championship that year.

Seemed pretty clean that he was playing on the fact that they were all talking about and wondering if he was gay. So he wanted to shut 'em up.

Yeah, really if you think about, given how many classifications there are, there were probably like 50-75 schools in the south that won state championships the first year they let blacks play with them.

TC Williams ain't nothing special.

If any character in this movie was a gay boy, it was Alan Bosley aka Ryan Gosling. That dude had homo written all over him.
