Dan went on to build a filmography defined by protagonists who fought the system. Unlikely heroes. Meatballs, Stripes, Private Parts, Road Trip, Old School, Space Jam and all three Hangover films with Todd Phillips.
Dan Goldberg co-wrote both Meatballs and Stripes with another college friend, Len Blum. After finishing their handwritten first draft of the iconic sleep-away camp film, they left their pages with a typist and went to grab a sandwich. They returned hours later to find no manuscript.
