Shaq on Joining Tinder, $1 Million Bet, Kazaam’s 25th Anniversary & Myths About Him

Shaq talks about missing people, enjoying tackling people, betting $1 million dollars on an MMA fight, signing up for Tinder and nobody believing that it was him, his 50th birthday coming up and Jimmy potentially planning it, the 25th anniversary of Kazaam, making a documentary about his life, buying Reebok and signing with them to create a signature shoe, putting on “The Event” in support of The Boys & Girls Clubs, living across the street from Wayne Newton, and Jimmy gets to the bottom of urban myths about him in a new game called “SHAQ or BULLSHAQ?”

Shaq’s physical dominance on the court is only eclipsed by his dominant personality off the court. Thank you for what you are doing for the Boy’s and Girl’s Club!

I love how Jimmy keeps throwing out random suggestions of wacky things they could do and Shaq just keeps saying yes

I love his commercials... he always looks like he's just having fun.

I Liked Kazaam. I was a child and thought it was good! Shaq is one of the good ones and his character and presence speaks for him. He has a heart of gold and this is why he is blessed to be a blessing to others in many ways. His gifts has made room for him.

Shaq is the GOAT. Not because of what he did on the court, but because of what he does off it. Love from Oz Diesel

I cannot wait to see that documentary. No idea how he manages to keep track of all these businesses and everything else he does. He just lives life big, the way I would love to live it.
