Did Shaquille O’Neal get rejected on Tinder?

DJing and MMA are not the only things the Big Man has tried. He once got on Tinder as well. During the show Jimmy Kimmel Live, he talked about he failed a Tinder date. The basketball legend had signed up for the app and tried to meet new people. Unfortunately, the famed dating app that has worked for many didn’t seem to work out for him.

The lucky girl who O’Neal wanted to meet couldn’t believe that it was him. The four-time NBA champion said, “I signed up for Tinder, put in my name and I tried to make a person meet me. And they didn’t believe it was me. I was like, ‘It’s me. It’s Shaq.’ And she said, ‘Shaq would never be on this.’ So, I had to hit delete. I had to delete my account.”
