Adam Sandler spent the Fourth of July weekend officiating the wedding of the year.
Two days later he was on the phone with the Nantucket police, though not for anything close to an emergency. Less than 48 hours after he married off Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce at Madison Square Garden on July 3, Sandler, 59, called the Nantucket Police Department's non-emergency line with a simple question: where could a guy find a pickup basketball game?
Public safety dispatcher Chris Reynolds took the call and later recounted it to the Nantucket Current, the local outlet that first reported the story.
"Sandler said, 'Hey, I'm here on your island and I like to play basketball. Can you tell me where there's a basketball court I could play on?' " Reynolds recalled.

The call was not a one-off. Hours before he officiated the Swift and Kelce ceremony on July 3, the Grown Ups star had already squeezed in a pickup run on outdoor courts in New York City during a heat wave. Sandler plays multiple times a week and has hooped with NBA pros and total strangers alike. Back in 2010, Shaquille O'Neal called him "a damn good player."
Reynolds pointed him toward the Backus Lane court off Surfside Road, where a group of locals had a game going. One of them, Andrew Kesler, said Sandler climbed out of a car and asked to jump in.
"Adam Sandler rolled in a car and started playing pick ups with the boys," Kesler said.
The Kelce Connection
Sandler first met Kelce on the set of the 2025 Netflix comedy Happy Gilmore 2, which featured a cameo from the tight end. He has spoken warmly about both newlyweds, once calling Kelce "such a gentle, nice guy" and describing Swift as "ridiculously nice" to his family.
It made for two pickup games in one wedding weekend, on two different islands. The second one just took a call to the cops to set up.
