Shaq on Twitter

ORLANO, FL. – Shaquille O’Neal’s latest hobby is Twitter.

(AP Photo/Rick Scuteri)Big Daddy was having a ball with it recently when he sent a message to his 165,000 ‘followers’ on the site.

The message read, “I’m at the fashion sq mall, any1 touches me gets 2 tickets, tag me and say yur twit u hv 20 min.”

Can you imagine the economic impact that message had on that shopping mall? Minutes after the Tweet, several fans stormed to the mall trying to get a peek at the NBA star. Now there’s a quick fix to the economy. Obama can send Shaq around to whatever restaurants and stores in dire need of pumping up their revenue.

Since there are impersonators on the site, if you want to hook up with the Phoenix Suns’ center on Twitter, know that the real Big Daddy refers to himself as ‘The real Shaq’, not to be mistaken for the imposters who call themselves ‘THE_GAY_SHAQ’, or ‘THE_REAL_SHAQ1′.
