Growing up in the 90’s, basketball was a big deal.
Players like Michael Jordan, Patrick Ewing, Charles Barkley, and of course….Shaquille O’ Neill were freaking superstars! But, everyone gets old…retires…and lives off their massive royalties. Unless…you are Shaq.
That dude knows exactly who he is an what he is capable of, and man…he’s pretty fantastic. When he’s not selling you the car insurance or Gold Bond Medicated powder….he’s running his Shaq Foundation which this year handed out 1,000 Nintendo Switch consoles, 1,000 Playstation 5’s, tons of toys, laptops, and lunches to kids in need in area schools.
His quote: “My family didn’t have a lot, but they taught me the value of giving back to those in need…15 to 20 million kids wake up on Christmas Day and not receive one gift. I felt that one time…I don’t ever want a kid to feel like that.”
What a bad ass.
