“Don’t Need This on My Hand”: Months After Travis Scott Tragedy, Shaquille O’Neal Avoided Major Catastrophe at His Own Concert

NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal is a certified polymath. Not only is he one of the greatest athletes ever, but the four-time NBA champion is also a media analyst, business mogul, and former rapper. Another well-known fact about Shaq is his love for music, which has prompted his newfound role as a DJ! He goes by the name of DJ Diesel and has performed at some of the biggest music festivals around the world. Meanwhile, Shaquille O’Neal recently made a serous revelation while addressing the tragic incident of two people losing their lives at a GloRilla concert in New York.

In fact, O’Neal revealed an incident that occurred during one of his sets at a concert. Interestingly, it was just months after the infamous Travis Scott Astroworld concert, and safe to say, Shaq handled the situation much better than the Hip-Hop superstar.

Shaquille O’Neal reveals a scary incident during one of his concerts

Music concerts by top artists around the world attract thousands of people. In most cases, the concert goes about smoothly but sometimes, things can go awfully wrong. For instance, the Travis Scott and GloRilla concerts.

Two people lost their lives in the GloRilla concert while 10 people lost their lives during the infamous AstroWorld concert by Travis Scott. During a segment of the latest episode of The Big Podcast with Shaq, co-host Nichelle Turned asked Shaq to give his thoughts on the GloRilla concert. The Los Angeles Lakers legend revealed that he had a similar scare during one of his concerts but he handled it really well.

Shaq said, “I’ve had one incident, it’s actually on the internet. I like to watch the crowd, I’m looking for the guy that’s not feeling me. I’m looking for the guy that’s not really having a good time, so I pay attention to the crowd. So on Lost Lands, a guy fell and I could see the people going like this. This is like a couple of months after the Travis Scott incident, like I don’t need this on my hand so I stopped.”

DJ Diesel really knows how to handle a crowd. He once performed in Tomorrowland which houses some of the biggest crowds in the world. Moreover, the 7-foot-1 inch tall NBA legend has also been spotted in several concert crowds where he was simply vibing with the rest of the people.
