Adam Sandler surprised a high school basketball team by showing up at St. John Vianney before his gig at the PNC Bank Arts Center.

Sandler arranged to have half of the gym for his group, while the Lancers' girls basketball team was able to continue practicing on the other half. Coach Dawn Karpell said it was obviously hard for the girls to focus once Sandler showed up, but it was worth it just for the thrill of meeting the comedian.

This is apparently a thing for Sandler, as he was spotted playing pickup basketball in Atlantic City before his show last week.
