We expect better behavior from the guy who penned “Lunch Lady Land!” The gossips at TMZ report that Sandler, in Massachusetts filming a movie called I Hate You, Dad, enlisted a place called A Taste of Italy to cater a couple of barbecues for his cast and crew. The restaurant stocked up on food, but apparently Sandler never claimed the goods … nor did he pay his tab. So now the restaurant has a new piece of window decor: a large sign announcing “Adam Sandler Ate Here and Never Paid.”

Naturally, reps for the gleefully crude actor deny the claims. It’s not the first time Sandler’s caused a stir up north: A strip club that appears in the movie caught heat from neighbors when production crews erected a portrait of a nude woman cloaked only in eggs and bacon.
