Shaq Bought Dinner for Entire NYC Restaurant While on Date, per Report
NBA Hall of Famer Shaquille O’Neal’s reputation in restaurants may rival his reputation on the basketball court at this point. Known for his generosity and huge tips, the big man with the big heart reportedly struck again.
While at dinner in New York City at the Jue Lan Club around 8:30 p.m. Sunday night, O’Neal paid for everyone in the restaurant’s meals, which totaled over $25,000, per Page Six. He was with an unnamed woman who he referred to as “my date” and even left a very large tip for the restaurant’s staff that was described as “the biggest tip they’ve ever received.”
