He lit up the NBA for two decades
as one of the greatest and biggest
men to ever grace the court.
Now, Shaquille O'Neal wants to light up.
Seattle's taste buds.
Do you know it's funny?
It's the first time I've come up here,
and it's not right now.
Back is bringing his new restaurant franchise
Big Chicken to Climate Pledge Arena.
This is the best arena in the world.
His sandwiches are named
after family and friends.
This is the uncle Jerome.
He describes his food the same
way most people describe him.
Nice, big and fun.
The superstar could hold himself
above the rest of us mere mortals,
but he would never.
Is it hard for you to talk to me
because I'm about 1/4 your height.
I usually talk to earthlings
your size every day.
OK, maybe he looks down on his
best frenemy Charles Barkley,
for whom he's even named a menu item.
This is a real sloppy sandwich.
OK, we're very sloppy.
Not that Charles is sloppy.
I'm just Oh no you were.
You wouldn't imply that.
The celebrity athlete pitch person.
TV personality and entrepreneur
seems to have it all.
What can't you do?
I Can't Sing. And I don't
know if I can skydive yet,
'cause I don't want that to be
my last thing that you see me do.
You might need more than
one parachute exactly. Yeah,
and now that Shaq's big chicken
is making its big entrance in a
hockey haven, he's determined
to finally learn how to skate.
I'll tell you what. I'll get some
skates made and then I'll try and
come out and lead the crackers out so
whoever is taking notes right now,
or one pair of size 23 skates.
Do they make double blade skates?
But there's one thing Shack
says you won't catch him doing.
Shawn Kemp has a pot shop
in town by the way, but what is that?
It's it's a marijuana is a
drug that people will use to
alter their consciousness.
I don't partake in those activities.
Good role model.
That's it'll stunt your growth. Now
that Shaq's chicken is coming to town,
there's a little something we'd like his
help with. Bring the NBA to Seattle.
That was what I was going to already know.
It's right here in my notes shack.
Will you please bring the NBA
to Seattle Seattle SuperSonics?
Shouldn't left anyway,
but Seattle SuperSonics in
need to come back home.
Some people just know how
to make other people happy.
Make face like you just got free coffee
forever from Starbucks wants it deeper.
One city. For once, it is perfect.
Yeah, I got that. Kilo Neil has
it all figured out how to win it.
Just about everything.
This is the shot you wanted a
shack right and never stop having
fun Shack we could get you on
the ice we could have you skating
in 10 minutes. I guarantee
it. Let's do it.
Shaq is clearly a big fan of Seattle
basketball, so listen to how he compares
himself to the most accomplished
athlete in Seattle history. Super
choose a better shooter.
She's a better player.
Sometimes you just have to hail to the queen.
Sue Bird is definitely a queen.
I don't do. People don't talk about
women sports enough and she's
a hell of a hell of an athlete.
Hell of a person. You
know the final game of
the season for the storm.
Fans were yelling for Sue Bird
one more year, one more year.
And so we're all hoping she comes
back when the storm take over
climate pledge Arena next season.
So exciting. I have to say I
loved Jim and Jacks prom poses.
Who wouldn't want to do that?
But I was thinking if you've ever
wondered how you would measure up
to shack Jimmy is 5 foot seven,
so you can kind of gauge where
you'd be on this. Shaq ometer.
We put his chin on his head, I mean, come on.
I think he had actually go down
to to get his chin on his head.
So that was fun.
