Behind on the lore.

What did Shaq do other than nearly every ad in the world? I can accept being a sell out for car insurance but anything egregious?

He evidently did some pretty weird stuff behind the scenes, like being something of a fecal-philiac. I pretty much scrubbed the memory shortly after reading about that stuff, but let's just say that he had his own, unique way of shittily hazing rookies and so forth...

Nothing publicly, I just ran into him at the burger king on I drive in Orlando at 4am and he was very rude.

Oh was the ice cream machine broke? I hear he gets mad about that

Na. He just wanted to come inside, skip everyone in line, with a gaggle of stereotypes, and pretend like no one would notice him. In the very city that made him famous.
