Shaq sends the President a gift

That's a damn big shoe.

Shaq couldn’t show, so he sent his shoe. A size 23 sneaker to be exact, autographed – a gift for President Barack Obama.

Phoenix Suns center Shaquille O’Neal couldn’t make to the airport for Obama’s arrival in Arizona Tuesday, so Phoenix Mayor Phil Gordon's son Jake did the honors. Clearly amused, Obama set the mega-sneaker on the ground next to his own shoe for comparison, then picked it up and carried it to the presidential limo.
