Fan Travels From Australia to New York Trying to Meet Adam Sandler…And Succeeds
That came after the show when Williams was waiting outside the arena with a crowd of a dozen or so fans hoping to see Sandler as he left. As she stood in the cold, she realized her cell phone had only six percent battery life remaining and, without it, she had no way of knowing how to get back to her hotel in midtown Manhattan.
One was Krystal Delgado from Queens, who held a sign during the show begging Sandler to take a picture with her. The other was Williams. “We would watch those on repeat and as I grew up it was just a pastime activity that my mom and I would always do together,” Williams said. “That's one of the memories that stands out the most is just how it began from her love of Adam Sandler.”
Standing at the center of the lounge room in Williams’ house is a life-size cardboard cutout of Sandler giving a thumbs up. “It didn't matter where I went, I just needed to be front row,” Williams said. “And it was a very expensive trip because it was so last minute.”
