Most people would probably spend a few days recovering after officiating one of the biggest celebrity weddings in recent memory. Adam Sandler, however, apparently had something else on his mind. Just 48 hours after helping Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce tie the knot in front of roughly 1,000 guests at Madison Square Garden, the comedian was reportedly calling local authorities in Nantucket, Massachusetts, with a simple question: Where can he find a pickup basketball game?
According to the Nantucket Current, Sandler contacted the Nantucket Police Department's non-emergency line shortly after arriving on the island with his family. Rather than reporting a problem, the actor was looking for directions.
Public safety dispatcher Chris Reynolds told the outlet that Sandler asked where he could find a public basketball court and join a pickup game. "Sandler said, 'Hey, I'm here on your island and I like to play basketball. Can you tell me where there's a basketball court I could play on?'" Reynolds recalled.
The dispatcher pointed him toward the Backus Lane basketball courts near Surfside Road, where Sandler reportedly wasted little time joining local players already on the court.
For the group of Nantucket residents already playing basketball that day, the appearance of a Hollywood star was completely unexpected.
