There was a very loving friendship between Norm Macdonald and Adam Sandler, and it is evident in this story Sandler told on an episode of "Conan" about the pair's first time making a movie together. Here is how it went down (via Yahoo).
They're filming "Billy Madison" together and Sandler is trying to feel out Macdonald's acting process. "I'm doing a scene with Norm at the pool," Sandler said. "I say my line and I think I did it very well. And I'm, like, let me see how Norm ping-pongs this line back. So there was a little bit of a delay, and I was, like, old Norm likes to a take his time." He continues, "Then I'm waiting longer and going, 'Wow, he's really milking this one.' And a few more seconds later I noticed old Norm was sleeping."
Why was Macdonald sleeping, you may be asking yourself? Here's how Sandler explains it: "They wanted to me to play a drunk, so I said, 'You got some booze?'"
Clearly, it was a match made in heaven as the pair would continue making movies and sharing a close friendship, according to Uproxx.
