A nightclub's having to rebuild its DJ booth to fit Shaquille O’Neal

HQ2 in Atlantic City welcomes the seven-foot-tall star on July 14

DJ Diesel, aka former NBA superstar Shaquille O’Neal, is due to play at HQ2 nightclub in Atlantic City on Saturday (July 14), but the club is having to make alterations to fit him in.

According to Page Six, the star's height, a towering seven foot, means the casino nightclub’s DJ booth is currently too small for him.

Now, a team of carpenters are having to lower the floor so that Shaq’s Saturday headline set will be able to ahead.

Always one to make an entrance, Shaq is also due to arrive at the club by helicopter.

O'Neal has played behind the decks intermittently since the 80s, having previously worked with the Notorious B.I.G and more recently Diplo.
