Shaq Buys Dinner For an Entire Restaurant’s Diners and Staff

shaquille o'neal

We all know Shaquille O’Neal as having a big personality that’s always entertaining and fun, but he also has a penchant for generosity that’s just as big. In that past he’s been known to randomly treat folks and their families to shopping sprees. He’s even helped a man buy an engagement ring for his future fiancée. In his latest benevolent exploit, Shaq treated a whole restaurant’s staff and its diners to dinner.

O’Neal’s business acumen is well-documented, as the former NBA star and current NBA on TNT personality has made wise investments in a diverse portfolio of fast food franchises and more.

He recently put his net worth of around $400 million to compassionate use by paying the dinner bill for over 40 tables and the whole server team at Jue Lan Club in New York, as reported by Page Six.

Shaq ultimately foot the $25,000+ bill for all, even including a very thoughtful and unselfish gratuity for the Jue Lan Club’s staff.

O’Neal has had many nicknames throughout the years, from The Big Aristotle to The Big Diesel. Now we have to add The Big Generosity to that long list of AKAs.
