Even perpetual $100 million movie grosses don’t guarantee you a seat at I-HOP.

Adam Sandler was recently turned away at an I-HOP in Manhasset due to a long wait. But did he flip out “Happy Gillmore” or “Billy Madison” style? Nope, he took it in stride and even joked about it online.

For the record, I only left the IHOP because the nice woman told me the all-you-can-eat deal didn’t apply to the milkshakes.

I don’t really watch Sandler’s movies (with the exception of “The Wedding Singer”, which is excellent), but I’ve always appreciated his down-to-earth likability offscreen. This story further solidifies my like of him as a person.

Take note, arrogant stars!
