Shaquille O’Neal Lives Up to His Not-a-Celebrity Status in America’s Chocolate State: “He Very Easily Could’ve Jumped in His Van and Left”

A man of the people. While a lot of people try to live by the moniker, very few can successfully justify it. However, in the case of Shaquille O’Neal, the moniker feels tailor-made. Despite a Hall of Fame career and an overabundance of wealth thanks to a successful post-basketball career, O’Neal remains as simple as they come. Further, his love for the masses shines through in every interaction.

Whether it be affordable sneaker lines, randomly helping out people at Walmart and iHop, or, as it turns out, taking out time for any fans in attendance, Shaq has all bases covered. During a trip to Dauphin County in Pennsylvania, the Los Angeles Lakers legend came in contact with a cheerleading team. Competing in Hershey, the entire team was blessed with some one-on-one time with the big man. Moreover, they were even able to snag some pictures of the event.

Memory of a lifetime for sure! How many people can say they went to Hershey to compete at the PIAA Competitive spirit state championships and run into Shaquille O’Neal?!” 

Suffice it to say, the 2000 NBA MVP has a fan in Coach Bish. According to Local21 news, the whole situation was a result of speaking to the Hall of Famer’s driver. With a request for a pyramid during the picture, a heartfelt moment was born. But, why was he in the area?

Further, his bet against Taylor Swift and the Kansas City Chiefs in their battle against the Baltimore Ravens ensures that that option is unavailable. Are the San Francisco 49ers his only choice left? However, there is one other way that the Miami Heat legend could contribute to the Big Day.
