Bradley Cooper, Irina Shayk Dating: Couple Visits Jersey Shore on Labor Day [PHOTOS]

Some people go to the islands for a vacation, some get away to a city or town they've never been before, but American Sniper star Bradley Cooper and girlfriend Irina Shayk decided to head to the Jersey Shore for Labor Day Weekend. Of course, the actor did spend some time over the summer at the Amalfi Coast in Italy a while back, but let's be real- that can get boring—fast! Sometimes you just need some Jersey.

Maybe?

Okay, honestly, we don't know why Bradley Cooper decided to go to New Jersey but the fact is that he did and we're talking about it... deal with it.

Per a report from NJ.com, Cooper visited a number of Jersey towns over the weekend, hanging out largely in Southern Jersey, which isn't so surprising considering his roots are in Philadelphia. (If you're from Jersey like this guy is then you realize there's a strict divide between Northern and Southern. And Central, well, you're Northern.)

The Academy Award nominee even took some time to pose for a photo at Bob's Grill located on the Ocean City boardwalk, something the teenage employees undoubtedly loved.

"It was so cool, he was really polite and took pictures with all the girls," Mary Grace Carson, 17, told Press of Atlantic City.

Cooper made several other stops throughout his Jersey Shore extravaganza, and yes, took more photos with fans.

So, what did Bradley Cooper spend most of his Labor Day doing? Our guess is taking photos with fans. Oh, and this...

At least, we're just guessing on the latter.
