We enjoy the perks of our Jewish young adulthood. We earn our own money. Responsibly consume alcohol. And we get to go to Israel for free.

But sometimes there are times we wish we were teenagers again…living in Marblehead and chilling at the JCC. Because, apparently, that’s the way to get up close and personal with Adam Sandler.

Mr. Sandler (or, Billy Madison, as we like to call him) happens to be filming ‘Grown Ups 2’ around the North Shore this summer. And in his downtime, he’s been hanging out at the JCC in Marblehead, shooting hoops and posing for pictures. And Chris Rock too! What?

Perhaps we shall get a membership to the JCC this summer…
