There's a new chapter to the story of the hapless host at a Long Island IHOP who turned away Adam Sandler after not recognizing the comedian.

Sandler met up with the host, Dayanna Rodas, at the same IHOP in Manhasset, New York where they had their first awkward encounter. He was just in time for the all-you-can-drink milkshake promotion Sandler had joked about last week.


Of course, Rodas documented the meet-up on her TikTok account.

It looks like it definitely went better than last time.

Couldn’t have been more excited!! Thank you Adam Sandler! #fyp #ihop #milkshakemonday #adamsandler #awesome #viral

Rodas' response to this Sandler encounter was decidedly less mournful than the last one.

She captioned the video:

"Couldn't have been more excited!! Thank you Adam Sandler!"

After the original incident in which she turned Sandler away because there were no tables available, he joked on Twitter he actually left of his own accord because he found out IHOP's all-you-can-eat deal didn't apply to milkshakes.

The iconic pancake house chain took notice, and announced it would hold a Milkshake Monday at all of its Long Island locations.

Obviously, Sandler had to be there, right?

So they brought in Rodas and the comedian so they could reunite for a sweet moment over a milkshake.

Better yet, the whole thing raised money for charity. $1 of each milkshake sold during Milkshake Monday—up to $50,000—went to Comedy Gives Back, an organization that offers support to members of the comedy community in need.

Sandler has been active with the organization throughout the pandemic, aiding its initiative to offer financial support to comedians out of work or in need of medical attention.

Even Sandler's dog got in on all the positivity, as he shared on Twitter.

And on social media, people were loving the reunion.

President Donald Trump was criticized after sharing a picture of the latest update to the entrance of the White House West Wing that made the historic landmark look more like a signature Trump hotel.

The Oval Office has been significantly revamped since Trump took office in January 2025—it features, among other things, a fireplace adorned with gold cherubs and medallions, surrounded by portraits of American statesmen in ornate gold frames and shelves filled with gilded figurines, urns, and freshly installed Rococo mirrors.

Rihanna Applauded For Powerful Response To Cancer Patient Who Apologized For Looking 'Terrible' Without Wig

Rihanna’s latest viral moment has nothing to do with music, fashion, or beauty launches. Instead, fans say the singer helped someone shine bright “like a diamond” after reassuring a cancer patient who apologized for not wearing a wig during an unexpected meeting.

The nine-time Grammy winner, 38, made a fan’s day during a recent trip to a supermarket, where she posed for a photo and offered words of encouragement after learning the woman was living with cancer and feeling self-conscious about her appearance. The interaction appeared in Jason Lee’s video series, Jason Lee Unlocked: Grocery Shopping with Rihanna, released on Monday, July 6.

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte found himself on the spot after Danish reporter Rasmus Svaneborg questioned whether sitting silently beside President Donald Trump as he discusses "conquering" Greenland and criticizing allies has impacted his "self-respect."

Rutte, a former Dutch prime minister, has been forced to manage Trump's repeated criticism of NATO while contending with his public insistence that the United States should acquire Greenland from Denmark.
