Shaquille O’Neal Turns Matchmaker for 4ft 11 Foodie as Big Chicken Trip Takes a Surprising Turn

A couple of things to look out for when you walk into a Big Chicken – Shaq and Shaq playing matchmaker. Talia, a food vlogger boasting 47.7k followers, received an invitation to eat at Big Chicken in Las Vegas. And her chef and server were none other than Shaquille O’Neal. The sandwich mogul doled out the Shaq-style service from start to finish exclusively for Talia.

Talia wrote, “I would never think Talia and @shaq could be in the same sentence but here we are @bigchickenshaq,” sharing her experience at Big Chicken. What exactly does the exclusive service by the Big Chicken mascot himself look like?

For starters, Talia was excited to be able to sit at the same table as the big man himself. She didn’t expect he’d go above and beyond to make her first time at Big Chicken memorable.

Shaq’s presence at every Big Chicken location is marked with decor like an oversized chair and his size 23 footprint. 4’11” Talia enjoyed comparing sizes, including standing alongside the 7’1″ giant.

O’Neal said he’s going to make their sandwiches today. The menu is inspired by his childhood dishes and his love for sandwiches. So he knows what he’s doing. Talia was more amused that he needed to bend over 90 degrees over the average counter to assemble the sandwiches.

Chef Diesel has quirks, though. He challenged that if he made a 3-pointer-esque shot into the trashcan, his guests pay. The 4x champion missed. So Talia’s meal was on Shaq.

To grease the wheels some more, Shaq tried to set Talia’s love life up. He asked her what kind of partner she liked before he brought a random diner over to introduce him to her. The turn of events nearly made Talia choke on her sloppy burger. Talia said this giant comic had her laughing the entire meal.

The only thing she concluded in the end was, “If I have one more thing to say, Uncle Shaq, if you’re watching this, can you set me up with an NBA player next time, pretty please?”

Shaq’s service doesn’t end there

When she gave Big Chicken the glowing review in a fun Reel, Shaq was in the comments with, “love u miss u.” Doesn’t get more premium than that. After O’Neal left a standing invite in the comments, Talia responded with, “love u uncle Shaq!!” No hint about her NBA player request though.

Big Chicken also thanked her with the fire and heart-hands emojis. She’s done a tremendous service herself, sharing the experience at the Las Vegas location with her 47k followers.

We’re waiting on Talia and Uncle Shaq’s next collab. If she’s lucky, another NBA player will be in the mix.
