Shaquille O’ Neal’s Credit Card Got Declined at Walmart for the ‘Biggest Purchase in Walmart History’

A 2018 clip of Shaq recounting the story of an ill-fated Walmart shopping spree recently went viral yet again after “The Late Late Show” reposted the hilarious talk show moment on Instagram.

Shaq recounts the story of his $70,000 Walmart shopping spree to host James Corden and guest Victoria Beckham

The shopping excursion happened back in 2008 when Shaq was traded from the Miami Heat to the Phoenix Suns.

When arriving in Arizona for the first time after a red-eye flight, the now 50-year-old basketball icon soon realized his accommodations were lacking.

“I’m the type of guy, I have no patience,” he says in the clip.

So Shaq went to Walmart at 3 a.m., dropping $70,000 on five TVs, printers, laptops, appliances, linens, and even underwear
