Nah, man. Shaq still owes us the visual of him actually eating frog. We absolutely have to have it.
The Inside the NBA host made his first public appearance on Tuesday since claiming he would eat a frog if TCU lost to Georgia in the College Football Playoff championship game.
Obviously, TCU lost pretty big. So everyone came into Tuesday expecting Shaq to have to eat frog, as promised, at some point. He even acknowledged the fact that he has to eat frog now.
We thought we finally got our moment. He brought a tray of something that appeared to at least be frog legs to the set. And, look — let’s be clear. Shaq said a frog — not frog legs. But fine. That’s at least part of a frog. We’ll take it.
But, as it turns out, he wasn’t even eating frog. Adam Lefkoe tried a piece of what Shaq brought to the table and it seems it was actually chicken.
House of Highlights posted the video evidence on YouTube. We’re going to need a do-over, Shaq.
“Adam Lefkoe: Shaq, that’s chicken.
Shaq: This is frog legs.
Lefkoe: Shaq, you need to stop lying. I’m not letting you get away with a bet with Ernie like that. This is chicken…America, this is chicken.”
Lefkoe sleuthed him out on this one. He also got Shaq to promise he’d honor his bet in the right way on Thursday when he’s with the OG Inside crew. “I’ll do it right on Thursday since you snitched me out,” he said.
Good on Lefkoe. Can’t wait to see this.
