Before he seemingly exited the ceremony after his exuberant shout-out, Sandler cheekily invited everyone to a game of five-on-five basketball at Veteran Park. He jokingly added, Midnight tipoff, the guy from ‘Nosterafu’ is on my team. Just moments earlier, Conan O’Brien had taken a humorous jab at Sandler’s relaxed style, asking, “Adam, what are you wearing? You’re dressed like a guy playing video poker at 2 a.m.”
Sandler responded, “Nobody even thought about what I was wearing until you brought it up. I like the way I look. Because I’m a good person. My snazzy gym shorts and fluffy sweatshirt offend you so much that you had to mock me in front of my peers!”
