Imagine getting pulled over by the police, threatened with arrest, and then coming up with a ridiculous justification to get out of trouble. Shaquille O’Neal, the NBA superstar, recently disclosed this amusing situation on “The Big Podcast with Shaq.”

When the legendary basketball player discussed his previous interactions with police authorities, a really funny story surfaced that highlighted Shaq’s quick wit and exuberant nature. Beyond the amusement, though, this episode illuminates the human side of a sporting star and serves as a reminder that even the most renowned people have their share of relatable and sensitive moments. But what did Shaq say?

The unexpected circumstance: O’Neal apprehended by the police

Shaquille O’Neal talked candidly about a remarkable experience he had with the police while passing through Valdosta, Georgia, on his podcast. Shaq was caught in the sight of a law enforcement officer as he was speeding down the route; the officer’s bright lights indicated a threat. But Shaq, ever the improviser’s master, had a shocking move up his sleeve.

O’Neal stated, “One day I’m flying and this is Valdosa Georgia flying that’s that’s down south Georgia I don’t have to get into what that means so the cop comes and my thing is I ain’t got nothing in the car whatever happens to lock me up whatever I know I’m going to get out so I’m like making up my story.” He continued, “Whenever they say, ‘Roll your window down, sir,’ I put my hands out, came. He said, ‘Why’re you going so goddamn fast?’ I said, ‘Man, I got to take a sh*t. I apologize. I got to go so bad. Sir, I have diarrhea. I have to go so bad, I apologize.'”
