Shaqtin’ A Fool has found the perfect ambassador in Shaquille O'Neal. While he was a fearsome player, O'Neal is also known for his comedic personality. This sense of humor seems to have been passed down to his children, as revealed by a recent quote from his eldest daughter. As the Christmas season approaches, the O'Neal family reminisces about a funny incident from their past. O'Neal has often spoken about his father's influence on him, and one particular event involving Santa Claus stands out. In an interview on The Big Podcast, O'Neal revealed that he once exclaimed, "F**k that, there ain't no Santa. I'm Santa. 

We don't got no chimney, we in the projects." This statement had a lasting impact on O'Neal, as his daughter Taahira later shared that he used the same reasoning to avoid spending too much on Christmas gifts. She jokingly recalled how he would say, "There's no chimney in Miami" as a way to escape the hefty Christmas bill.

Interestingly, this story contrasts with recent events, where O'Neal has been embracing the Christmas spirit. Just a few days ago, Taahira was amazed by her father's generosity at Forever 21. She shared a video on her Instagram story, showing how O'Neal offered to pay for everyone's purchases at the store. While he doesn't own Forever 21, O'Neal's act of kindness truly embodies the Christmas spirit. Taahira confirmed this gesture, adding heart and crying emojis to express her emotions. It was a special moment for father and daughter, showcasing a side of O'Neal that is reminiscent of Santa Claus.

Although this year has been a rollercoaster ride for Taahira and her siblings, they hope to have a wonderful Christmas with their father, the legendary Miami Heat player.
