IHOP Saga Concludes as Adam Sandler Returns to Meet Viral Host

Adam Sandler finally returned to IHOP to meet the host who turned him away, thus igniting a viral sensation.

Dayanna posted a series of slides on her now famous TikTok account, showing the Sandman himself grabbing a milkshake on the day named in honor of their interaction.

"Couldn't have been more excited!!" she wrote. "Thank you Adam Sandler!"

Sandler's bulldog in particular seemed to enjoy the occasion, as the actor posted a pic of him while thanking the restaurant for their charitable contribution:

In response to Adam Sandler's response, IHOP is offering the All-You-Can-Drink Milkshake special the actor craved so badly — for one day only.

All proceeds will go to the charity Comedy Gives Back. Alas the offer is only available in the chain's 19 locations in Long Island, where the actor was first rejected.

However the restaurant also vowed to donate $1 to the non-profit for every milkshake purchased in any IHOP today, up to $50,000.

America waited a lot longer than Adam Sandler would have had to for a table, but we finally got a response from the actor about going viral last week after he walked out of an IHOP rather than wait 30 minutes or so for a table.

The hostess shared the security footage of her encounter with Sandler because it was only until after it all went down that she had any idea who she was talking to. "Pleaseee come back," she had captioned the video.

Jumping on Twitter, Sandler quickly set the record straight as to just why a 30 minute wait for IHOP was unacceptable for him that day.

"I only left the IHOP because the nice woman told me the all-you-can-eat deal didn't apply to the milkshakes," he joked.

He may be a Big Daddy in Hollywood — but at IHOP Adam Sandler is a regular Joe just like the rest of us.

A hostess at the International House of Pancakes has shared the mortifying moment she believes she turned away the A-lister from the restaurant without ever realizing it was him.

Dayanna Rodas posted a TikTok on Monday featuring security camera footage from her restaurant, as she obliviously rejects one of the most famous faces on the planet.

While the apparent Sandler, who appears to be accompanied by one of his daughters, is wearing a mask, his countenance is unmistakable to just about everyone on the planet (bar one). And that one person is just about to tell him there are no tables.

"Not realizing its Adam Sandler and telling him its a 30min wait and him ofc leaving bc hes not going to wait 30mins for IHOP," she captioned the video, which also featured herself wearing a deserving clown filter.

The clip has 9million views, and counting.

The comments are filled with admiration for the actor, who very clearly did not drop a "do you know who I am?"

"At least he didn't use his fame to rush anything he left like a normal person would," one praised.

"The fact that he just took the wait time and left instead of throwing a tantrum like regular customers do who aren't even celebrities," another added.

One commenter claimed Rodas "humbled him", though very few agreed.

"'you humbled him'. lmao he's literally one of the most humbled celebrities out there," one pointed out.

"'you humbled him' y'all he's ay ihop he didn't need to be humbled," said another.

While some commenters forgave Rodas for not recognizing him because of his regular wardrobe, others pointed out that trademark casual clothing was the exact dead giveaway.

"He dresses so normal I wouldn't be able to tell either," one claimed.

"How'd you not realize it was him with those shorts? it's his signature look!" another disagreed.

"he dresses like he's always ready to hoop and I respect him for that," a third concluded.

As for Rodas, she just wants another shot at seating the star.

"Pleaseee come back," she wrote.
