While filming on location in New York, James Gandolfini, aka Tony Soprano, made "The Sopranos" cast and crew an offer they couldn't refuse -- ice cream.

The HBO drama series was shooting a mob wedding in Wednesday's sweltering heat and to help everyone keep cool, Gandolfini hired an ice cream truck to park near a Brooklyn church, the New York Post reported Thursday.

An informant told The Post the wedding was for the daughter of mobster John "Johnny Sack" Sacramoni, but the identity of her groom is being kept under wraps until the show comes back to HBO sometime in 2006.

The last time Sacramoni, played by Vincent Curatola, was seen on screen, he was being arrested by federal agents.
