Adam Sandler and Chris Farley were unexpectedly fired from Saturday Night Live at the same time!
Adam Sandler and Chris Farley are two of Saturday Night Live's most famous cast members. Sandler came up with classics like "The Hanukkah Song" and Farley's Chippendale audition is the stuff of SNL legends. It seems they weren't good enough for NBC an the SNL producers though.
While on The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien in 2010, Sandler admitted that he and Farley had been fired after the 1995 season. He recounted that no one really wanted to tell him that he was getting fired, but then Farley came running into his office and broke the news to him: "we're getting fired!"
Farley tragically died long before his time, but Sandler went on to make numerous successful comedies. Wonder what would have happened if the two remained on SNL.
