In the movie Dodgeball, Patches O'Houlihan was once a spry ADAA All-Star. But by the time Peter LaFleur and the team meet him, he's in a wheelchair.

My Question: Does the movie ever explain why Patches O'Houlihan is in a wheelchair? Did he suffer some sort of an injury?


It's never stated in the film why he needs the wheelchair other than his advanced age and infirmity. It can be inferred that years of hard living are the primary reason; but it is never explicitly stated in the film.
