When Aaron Judge and Shaq met in the Super Bowl, Shaquille O’Neal made the 6-foot 7 inches slugger look like a fan boy wanting to meet the dominant former-NBA forward.

Aaron Judge and Shaq are considered one of the biggest players in their respective sports. Judge recently hammered 62 home runs in the MLB 2022 season establishing himself as the American League’s HR King. On the other hand, Shaq is a former NBA star who has bagged 4 NBA Championships in his career.

Joon Lee, ESPN’s staff writer tweeted, “Aaron judge is one of the largest humans I’ve ever seen in person and shaq makes him look like a normie,” meanwhile Talkin’ Yanks tweeted, “Guys Aaron Judge is 6’7, 282 pounds. Shaquille O’Neal makes him look small.”

Aaron Judge was turned into a meme by Shaquille O’Neal. The picture must have been taken to shock the world with the connection built between the two stars. Instead, the picture was trolled around as if these are two normal sized people. Shaq was wearing a Jet-Black Falcons jersey and Judge was wearing a Jackson Mahomes jersey.

Can Aaron Judge and Shaq be compared in their respective sport?

The two met in a Super Bowl matchup between Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Kansas City Chiefs. They were spotted together in a box alongside Alex Rodriguez, Jennifer Lopez, and Robert Kraft. However how does the tallest man in baseball history to slug 50 plus home runs in a season be defined as a shorty.

On the other hand, Aaron Judge is only 30 years old and in the prime of his career. His current accolades would make look the same way in front of Shaq like in the picture. Despite that, Aaron Judge is the record-holder of most HR in an MLB season. He is a 4time All-Star and 2022’s MVP.
