Shaquille O’Neal, the NBA Hall of Famer, made his first visit to Big Chicken in Renton on June 21. O’Neal was in Seattle for a music performance under his alias DJ Diesel and stopped by the restaurant, which is part of his growing franchise.
The event, promoted on social media the night before, took place on Father’s Day, and O’Neal was accompanied by his son Shareef O’Neal, a professional basketball player. Many fans showed up at the North 10th Street location as early as 6 a.m. to meet O’Neal, and the restaurant’s staff handed out free chicken tenders to those waiting in line.
Big Chicken in Renton is open Monday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. and from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Sundays. For more information about the menu and other locations, visit bigchicken.com.
