Bubba Gets His Wish To Be With Ellen

Brian Wacker has the great news. I know you're setting the DVR's already.

What drew Watson to her, he says, was her comedy. "She's just hilarious," he said. "Before she had her show, she was a stand-up comedian and I remember she was funny way back when."

The other thing that attracted Watson to DeGeneres is all the charitable donations that she has become known for, often giving away money and gifts away on her show to those in need. That's something that strikes close to the heart of Watson, a devout Christian who is involved in a number of charitable efforts.

"She makes everyone laugh and loves giving stuff away," said Watson, who learned the game by hitting plastic golf balls as a 6-year-old growing up in the Florida panhandle and used to wear pink socks in his high school matches. "Just because I'm a male doesn't mean I don't like [her show] or the same things she does. She gives a lot to charity and I admire that."
