Shaq tweets his cell number?

[birdwatcher]

Not sure if it's true, but one of my employees showed me the tweet today that basically gave his number and said it was a one day only type of thing. Any validity to this? If so, it amazes me how often he reached out to the community. Since he's been in Boston I've met him in the lobby of the Four Seasons signing autographs before an MMA fight, saw him in Harvard Square, and he's frequently in the news buying food & clothes for kids--he even left a pair of autographed sneakers in Sudbury. He's a really fun celeb to have around town!

Shaq's first tweet:

The next one, 20 mins later:

# A ha got u all. Lol smiley face lmtbo (laffin my tall but off) 40 minutes ago via ÜberTwitter

If he was creative, he would have given out Kobe's number.

Thanks for the info--figured it had to be a sham or someone hacked his account. I heard Nate Robinson did a similar thing, posting some random phone number as his own. I don't have a twitter account, I'm too busy geeking out on NBA team blogs

One article in the links today said that if you called it, you got a humor hotline with a recording on how to keep an idiot busy.

I used to be pretty anti-twitter, but I'll say it's made my geeking out way more efficient. Highly reccomend it as a source of getting info & entertainment, especially to basketball nerds.
