Eight Crazy Nights dvd wholesale for USA ebay resellers. --- In the small town of Dukesberry, New Hampshire in December 2001, Davey Stone (voice of and resemblance to Adam Sandler), a 33 year old alcoholic troublemaker with a long criminal record, is arrested for walking out on his bill at Mr. Chang's (Rob Schneider) Chinese restaurant. Davey is about to be sentenced to jail time when Whitey Duvall (Adam Sandler), a 70-year-old volunteer referee from Davey's former basketball league, comes forward at his trial. The judge (voiced by Norm Crosby), at Whitey's suggestion, sentences Davey to community service as a referee-in-training for Whitey's Youth Basketball League. Under the terms of the community service, if Davey commits a felony before his sentence is completed, he will be sentenced to ten years in prison.
The next day, Davey referees his first game, which ends in disaster: After being told to remove his shoes, Davey kicks them off, smashing an overhead lighting fixture and striking the timekeeper. He taunts an obese child, and then the child's parents, who attack Davey; Whitey suffers a grand mal seizure, and the game is abruptly brought to an end. Attempting to calm Davey down, Whitey takes him to the mall, where they meet single mom Jennifer Friedman (voiced by Jackie Titone and singing voiced by Alison Krauss), Davey's childhood girlfriend, and her son, Benjamin (voiced by Austin Stout). As before, Davey finds himself attracted to Jennifer, but Whitey reminds him that he lost his chance with her 20 years ago.
Davey and Whitey's relationship becomes more contentious, as Whitey's various attempts to encourage Davey are met with humiliation and assault. Upon arriving home one night, Davey finds his trailer being burned down by a man who lost a bet to him; Davey rushes into the burning trailer to rescue a Hanukkah card from his parents, then watches it crumble. Whitey opens his home to Davey, who grudgingly accepts the invitation; also living in the house is Whitey's bald, diabetic fraternal twin sister Eleanor (also voiced by Adam Sandler). The Duvall household has many complex rules (referred to by Whitey as technical fouls), which prove themselves extremely irritating. However, he seemingly overcomes them, and begins to turn his life around.
Davey's success in reforming is cut short one morning when Whitey recalls the events of Hanukkah twenty years ago: En route to one of Davey's basketball games, his parents' car was struck by an oncoming truck after it skidded on black ice. They were both killed, and Davey learned of their deaths when the police showed up at his game to inform him. Davey withdrew from society and developed alcoholism, embarking on a life of juvenile delinquency and adult criminal behavior. Davey flies into a rage and storms off; he spends the rest of the day drinking, and later that night breaks into the mall. In a drunken stupor, he imagines the logos of various stores coming to life and confronting him about his inability to grieve for his parents, which they identify as the source of his alcoholism. He finally opens his parents' Hanukkah card, which contains a message praising him for being a good son. Davey breaks down and cries, finally coming to terms with his loss. Just then the police arrive, but Davey escapes and boards a bus to New York.
En route to the city, the bus is forced to stop when all eight tires are punctured by a single thumbtack in the road. Reminded of the Miracle of Hanukkah, Davey walks off the bus, intending to find Whitey and make amends.
Davey finds Whitey at the All-Star Banquet, an annual town celebration in which one member of the community is recognized for positive contributions to Dukesberry. Despite having vied for the award for over twenty years, Whitey is once again passed over; he leaves in disgrace, intending to move to Florida, where he can live out the rest of his life in anonymity. Risking arrest, Davey storms into the hall and reminds everyone of the selfless contributions that Whitey has made to Dukesberry over the course of his life. Disgraced, the townspeople acknowledge the error of their decision. Davey leads the people to Whitey, who has gone to the mall to be alone and pray. The townspeople thank Whitey for his service over the years, and all 35 previous recipients of the award give theirs to Whitey, in addition to the 2001 award. Davey and Jennifer reconcile, and Whitey goes into a seizure brought on by sheer joy.
