It would probably be an intense competition if we tried to figure out who the biggest Zac Efron fan was. We’re all pretty much madly in love with the actor. But it turns out, the 31-year-old’s grandpa might actually have us all beat! Zac shared a sweet post in honor of his grandfather’s birthday on Monday, Jan. 7, 2019, and fans were quick to notice that the 91-year-old actually had a bunch of old posters of Zac from his High School Musical days hung on his wall! How sweet (and relatable) is that?

“Happy 91st b-day to the original Efron. The man who made it all possible,” Zac captioned the adorable clip which showed his grandpa blowing out his birthday candles. “After the army, he married my beautiful Grandma Dotty [and] raised three young Efrons, one of whom is one heck of a guy — my dad.”

Happy 91st Bday to the Original Efron! The man who made it all possible! After the army-he Married my beautiful Grandma Dotty, raised three young Efrons- one of whom is one heck of a guy- my dad. And from the day I came into this world, taught me everything: how to tell stories, ski, laugh, love, work hard, and appreciate the beautiful things in life: paying it forward, treat others as one would like others to treat oneself, and live every day to the fullest. I’ve never seen anyone light up a room like you Grandpa. Thanks for being my idol, mentor, best friend, and the BEST SKIER in the family. Happy 91 years Grandpa! I love you. I’ll See you and Grandma soon! Can’t wait to follow your tracks down the 🏔 and beyond.

“And from the day I came into this world, [he] taught me everything: how to tell stories, ski, laugh, love, work hard, and appreciate the beautiful things in life — paying it forward, treat others as one would like others to treat oneself, and live every day to the fullest,” Zac continued. “I’ve never seen anyone light up a room like you Grandpa. Thanks for being my idol, mentor, best friend, and the BEST SKIER in the family. Happy 91 years Grandpa! I love you.”

Wow, we don’t know what’s cuter — the sweet caption or the fact that Grandpa Efron’s a total Zac stan. We didn’t think the actor could get any more perfect than he already was, but seeing how much his grandfather means to him is seriously making us love The Greatest Showman star even more. A man that’s not afraid to show his emotional side is definitely our type of man.

Naturally, fans couldn’t stop laughing over the posters, and some shared their amusement in the comment section of the Instagram post. “I had the same poster as Grandpa Efron,” one fan noted.
