While on our honeymoon in Providenciales, Turks and Caicos, we ate Dinner at Baci Ristorante with Shaq. Yes, Shaquille O'Neal. The big man.

And by ate, I meant at a table behind his. We walked right past him and he's impossible to miss. He wasn't that tall sitting in the chair, but his legs forced him to sit about 3 feet away from the table. :D

We decided not to bug him as he was with his wife and kids, but as he left, he made eye contact, I pacnicked and flashed him the "peace" sign, which he returned with a peace sign and a smile. The wife waved and he gave her the big point and smile he's been known to do. I like to think he was saying "thanks for being cool." Probably more like "Peace, dorks." :D

Anyways, it was pretty cool to see someone like that in a place like that. Picture didn't really turn out as it was pretty dark, but that's him.

Very Cool. How was the resort? Did it live up to my hype???

Did you eat at the Palms?

It was my favorite place there. Seems like that island is teaming with celebs.

The resort was awesome. Very quiet, and the staff was helpful with reservations and such. We didn't eat at the Palms, but that must be the only place we didn't go, cause we ate EVERYWHERE! Food was great too, and the beaches are top notch. Thanks again for the recommendation.

The wife wanted to ask him if he hates D-Wade as much as we do. :eek:

You should have asked him a Corby-like question.

That was my first thought, to ask him a "Or be Shawn Bradley" Question.

Shaq is Da Bomb.

He's a sheriff's deputy in Miami. Works undercover - but that'd be sort of difficult, I imagine.
