Met Adam Sandler on an elevator when I was 9yrs old. He was the nicest guy & got his autograph 😊 glad he’s the same with fans as he is online

A man that is unapologetically goofy that is loyal to his friends and family and supports them through thick and thin for decades while always striving to being kind to others. All while in basketball shorts and goofy socks. Thanks for the movies, the laughs, the tears, and the inspiration to not be an asshole

I had no idea Cameron was meant to be in this movie. I love when Adam talks about Cameron & how Cameron always showed Adam so much love & respect. He passed too young talented kid.

[sennagarcia]

I am not kidding when I saw the trailer for Hubbie Halloween I immediately thought Cameron would be part of it because all of the Disney kids and iconic people. So when Adam said that he was supposed to be in it and died a few days before filming, my heart sank because I thought he would be perfect fit for it. We miss you Cameron. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Adam Sandler's shirt makes me think of him being a gym teacher for some reason hahaha

That Cameron kid was too good for this earth 💖

I was sitting working on my laptop at a Starbucks a few years ago and Adam and a gaggle of little girls came around the corner to sit next to me on these dusty little patio tables. They got their table first and then went back in to get their drinks. When they came out an older woman trailed after them and they couldn't fit her in at the table so she asked if she could sit with me. It was his Mom. We had a lovely conversation. They didn't stay long and the girls threw out their drinks so she started telling me stories about how as a child she always made him finish his food and how he and his wife spoiled the children. Hilarious.

I will ALWAYS be an Adam Sandler fan. He has a huge heart, interacts with fans and he just has a pure soul. I met him in 2016 ran into him, and not only did the man thank me for being a fan but he also gave me a 2-3minute speech how to work hard at your dreams.

[zachaman]

How this guy didn't win something for his role in Uncut Gems is ridiculous

[VanillaBear]

Why do people think that just because they don't like someone's films they're douchebags? Of course Sandlers a nice guy!!! You can just tell from every interview how he treats people and the way he talks about things he loves. He's definitely a friendly and goofy guy

[feury]

The way Adam speaks about Cameron is so damn sweet. 🥺

[Proctor]

I've loved adam sandler as a kid and still to this day watch & love all his movies and interviews. Hes such a cool guy. I hope to meet him in person one day

[katokamakazie]

I just love this man, I never knew I was a fan of Adam Sandler till the day I cleaned out my hard drive and saw I had every single movie he has ever made and some stand -up I forgot about, well that went straight to the favorite folder. He is just always so humble about everything he does even in his movies he is just your chill dude

[kawaiiafangirl]

That picture at 2:12 is so cool. I'm a huge fan of both Chris Rock and Adam Sandler and have never seen that pic.

[abogida]

I love his movie Click. It’s crazy how it take you from laughing your ass off to really emotional(made me cry).

[autumna.]

Adam is such a great guy...so cute and sweet. He is humble and joyful, two qualities missing in a lot of celebrities.

[sfwrtfdyuy]

Sometimes I wonder if cam was even real I mean he was literally perfect he was so pure and precious and his heart was made of gold I love him and miss him every single day and to think that he would’ve been in this movie is crazy because now he’s not here anymore 🥺💙✨👼🏼

[kyliepollert]

I actually got a T-shirt for Christmas years ago that said "I wanna get chocolate wasted!" that had a double meaning. One was I love "Grown Ups", and two was I love chocolate!!

[BlakieTT]

Adam, I love you so much man. PLEASE PLEASE do a Waterboy sequel. That is my favorite movie of yours and I love it so much. Fit in a story that sheds light on other serious matters (other than the same stuff in the first one, bullying, not judging people, etc), but told in a hilarious way, with your hilarious friends - it could be AMAZING!
