Jim Carrey cheered up a high school baseball team after they lost a crucial game after he stumbled across them in an Iowa Burger King.

The 'Kick-Ass 2' actor was on a meditation retreat at the Maharishi University of Management in Iowa when he chanced upon the sullen looking teenagers at a local Burger King and decided to surprise them by boarding their bus to boost their spirits. The 51-year-old known for his hilarious turns in 'Dumb and Dumber' and 'The Mask' coaxed laughs out of the dejected players with his famed comedic impressions, and even posed for a picture with the students, which was shared by one of the excited teens on social media.

Before taking the goofy snap, Jim reportedly exclaimed: 'Who are the f***ing winners now?!'

The team's coach, Jesse Jablonski, admits he was initially unsure they were in the presence of the Hollywood A-lister, but was quickly convinced because Jim 'just has those unmistakable facial expressions as he talks'.

He added to local newspaper, the Des Moines Register: 'I kind of heard some whispers from a few of my guys in the background. I didn't really think it would be [him] at first. What would he be doing in Fairfield, Iowa?'

Well believe it or not Jim, who is a practicing Buddhist, was in town for a spiritual day at the retreat founded by guru Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Nice to know that Buddhism allows for fast food.
