Today in Amazing: The_Real_Shaq Really is The Real Shaq

This, from a guy in Phoenix who tries to verify that Twitter Shaq is Real Shaq by going to the diner where Twitter Shaq said he was eating at that very moment, is pretty great, mainly because they walk in and Shaq is actually there. Best part:

“You go talk to him” I said, while tugging nervously on my dress.
“No, you go talk to him” Sean replied while flipping his hair.

We placed our order, and spent 10 minutes trying to work up the sack to go say something.

“Should I tell him I’m glad he’s sticking around?”
“Go tell him you’re his twitter buddy”
“Should I ask for a picture?”

Given another 2-3 years, I’m sure we would have worked up the nerve to go talk to him, but before that could happen Sean’s iPhone buzzed with a “tweet” from Shaq.
I feel twitterers around me, r there any twitterers in 5 n diner wit me, say somethin


“Hey” Sean said, with a slight bit of confidence.

Returning to our hushed whispers I asked Sean, “Should we go talk to him now?”
“I don’t know, should we?”

“Yes, you should” a very deep voice entered our conversation from 2 booths over.
