3 Days Before Making Debut in Toronto, Shaquille O’Neal Had Fan-Girls Screeching Only for Scary Selfie

The Toronto International Film Festival is underway with some of the hottest parties in the city. Shaquille O’Neal is there to work and party. Despite his multiple business expansions and on-camera appearances, Big Diesel is always ready to switch to ‘DJ Diesel’ to liven up any festival and afterparty. He loves to make people happy even if means pausing between his hectic schedules to take a rushed picture with a few young fans.

The NBA star did just that and made it onto an “unhinged” YouTube video in the most Shaq-way possible. It was an abrupt pitstop before he’d party it up with some NHL stars in Hogtown.

Shaquille O’Neal makes a few teens’ night

Another day of Shaq showing up everywhere! A YouTube channel called Camp Unhinged shared a video where the teens behind the channel attended a local football game. Later that evening, they went somewhere because they knew the one and only Shaquille O’Neal was around.It was go-time when the 7’1″ giant’s gigantic van pulled up. O’Neal stepped out of the building and instantly mingled with the young fans. But things went a little askew. Nothing ruins a fan encounter more than an imperfect picture to immortalize.

Although O’Neal, in perfect DJ Diesel garb with his black ensemble and gold bling around his neck, posed for pictures with his shorter fans, the picture got distorted. Check out the scary results in the video below at your own risk. We’re not responsible for ‘Boogeyman Shaq’ revisiting your nightmares.

O’Neal and his crew swiftly left in the van while the teens were starstruck. Regardless, it was a cute fan interaction and at least they have the video to prove it. It was a tiny impromptu moment in a meticulously hectic schedule for the Los Angeles Lakers legend currently.

We live for Shaquille O’Neal’s chance run-ins with fans. Whether it’s through a random act of generosity or snapping a few pictures, you can always see his larger-than-life kindness in those instances. More people in Toronto got to witness the Big Aristotle personality.

The Toronto International Film Festival began on September 7. Before it concludes on September 17, there’s going to be numerous star sightings in Toronto through some awesome parties. Shaquille O’Neal led the first weekend of parties deejaying at the RBC House.

Some of the lucky folks who were entertained by DJ Diesel’s tunes were a handful of Toronto Maple Leaf pros. The team’s alternate captain, Auston Matthews, was in attendance with center Maxi Domi. In a few days, Matthews and Domi will get caught up in the 2023-24 NHL season. So partying with the basketball legend/super-awesome DJ is the perfect way to wind down.
