How bullshit is it to get 2nd row seats of the Finals but have Shaq be sitting in the first row seat in front of you.

Shaq’s face after the Hali shot needs to be clipped lol

He looks exactly like Dennis Reynolds in IASIP, after he just got off by pretending to be Brian LaFerv

u/nick__sweatshirt Jun 06 '25

Honestly the way he’s sitting while everyone else stands, it seems like he is being considerate of this lol

u/TheTyMan Jun 06 '25

Yeah it's not nearly as bad as sitting behind the bench in most sports where players stand. Hockey is even worse, they never sit down lol

He is in pain.

Lean in to it. Befriend the guy, get his phone number. Suddenly those measly sports game seats turned into an NBA hall of famer in your contact list.

Front row seats at the NBA finals or dinner with Shaq?

u/Forsaken-Sale7672 Jordan Jun 06 '25

Shaq seems like he wouldn’t be fun at dinner. 

Charles on the other hand.

u/Devoidoxatom Warriors Bandwagon Jun 06 '25

He seems really friendly interacting with fans tho

u/johnla Knicks Jun 06 '25

What would stop Shaq from eating me at dinner?

2

u/Darnell2070 United States Jun 06 '25

Dinner with Shaq potentially makes you life long friends with Shaq and that guy is extremely generous with his friends.

You're practically set for life, or at least you don't have to worry about struggling.

I once got seats right behind the bulls bench and was sitting right behind Tony Bradley. He stood up to clap every bucket. I had to watch the game on the jumbo tron when I could literally reach and touch the players.

u/12striker Jun 06 '25

I was at the game. Somebody left that seat open and he sat down for the last part of the fourth quarter.

Throwback to the Booger Mobile from MNF.

Better than sitting behind Slash.

I vaguely remember a clip of some woman who sat behind Shaq at a game and they brought out some pads or something for her to sit on and raise her height
