Shaquille O’Neal is in a league of his own and people can’t get enough of him after he made an appearance at the U.S. Grand Prix in a heavily customized Cadillac Eldorado.
The U.S. Grand Prix was a real celebration and Shaquille O'Neal was a big part of it (literally and figuratively). The basketball star had quite a grand entrance, worthy of his status.
On his way to present the winners’ trophy to Max Verstappen, Shaq was the talk of the town as he arrived in a heavily customized car. One that gave the vibe of a Cadillac Eldorado from the 60s or 70s, modified so it would fit Shaquille O’Neal’s heavy frame.
The huge convertible included large bull horns fitted to the front and the seven-foot-one-inch-tall NBA legend could comfortably sit in the vehicle, which probably had the size of a truck. The player sat back on brown-colored leather seats, that looked oddly comfy.
The Cadillac Eldorado resemblance might not be a coincidence, because Shaq does own one. In fact, it's not just any Cadillac that he's got back home, but the 1963 version that Tony Montana drives in Scarface. It comes with tiger fur seats, and, as a huge fan of the 1983 movie, the basketball player bought it to roll around Orlando.
With a lot of celebrities like Megan Thee Stallion, Gordon Ramsey, Winnie Harlow, Ben Stiller, and many others in attendance, the U.S. Grand Prix entertained everyone with cheerleaders and ended with fireworks.
The NBA superstar is now meme material after he towered over Lewis Hamilton while the British driver was already on the podium, as you can see in the attached post below. Shaq stood in the background as Verstappen and Hamilton took the podium, looking a bit shorter than Max, but taller than Lewis.
Hamilton failed to catch Red Bull Racing's driver and had to settle for the second position on the Circuit of the Americas. But he offered a full-on spectacle for the packed stands. And Shaq got what he wanted – a ride worthy of a legend.
