The “Protect Adam Sandler At All Costs" sentiment outweighed others as the beloved actor pulled in a pair of shorts and a sweatshirt, pulling a full-on fanboy moment for Timothee Chalamet. As if the comedian couldn't be more relatable, the Happy Gilmore star crashed the Oscars on Sunday, interrupting host Conan O'Brien's opening monologue.

Even as Sandler was being roasted for the forever-running gag of dressing up casually at such a big awards night, he kept his cool and yelled "Chalamet!” into A Complete Unknown actor. Giving him the Academy Award nominee a big hug, Adam's typical growl earned laughs at the Dolby Theatre.

Before supposedly exiting the ceremony early after his over-enthusiastic shout-out to Chalamet, Sandler invited everyone to “a game of five-on-five basketball at Veteran Park.” Goofing off again, he went on, “Midnight tipoff, the guy from… ‘Nosterafu. He's on my team.”

Just moments earlier, Conan O'Brien asked the Grown Ups star, “Adam, what are you wearing? You’re dressed like a guy playing video poker at 2 a.m.”

He replied, “Nobody even thought about what I was wearing until you brought it up. I like the way I look. Because I’m a good person. I don’t care about what I wear and what I don’t wear. My snazzy gym shorts and fluffy sweatshirt offend you so much that you had to mock me in front my peers!”
