I love Shaq! Slam it, jam it, make sure it’s broke. One of his exceptional feats was shattering the backboard on a slam dunk. He was a pro basketball player while simultaneously doing this!! After retiring from basketball he’s become quite the spokesman. He’s also gigantic. When I think of big athletes, I think of Shaq. I think of Refrigerator Perry. Speaking of refrigerators, Shaq wants you to put some mini Pepsi cans in yours. Check out the big man with the little cans in this Pepsi commercial with a reworked song from the 1990s…
The Song. I wish I was a little bit taller. No seriously, I’ve always wished that. But this song is different than my theme song as a teenager. The original Skee-Lo song has revised lyrics for the commercial, now called “I Wish (I Was a Little Bit Smaller)” and I haven’t confirmed this yet but I believe the singer is a guy named it’s by Lee Charm.
Twice As Big. Shaq’s been in a Pepsi commercial before but it was all about bigness. Funny how things change based on what consumers want. We see this with cars a lot, too. Preferences go from huge Ford Excursions to small Chevrolet Blazers in a matter of years. Here’s Shaq’s Big Slam commercial.
Do you wish you were taller? Smaller? Or an entrepreneur like Shaq? Chime in below!
