It turns out legendary NBA basketball player Shaquille O'Neal is a HUGE fan of General Hospital's Luke and Laura.
Soap operas have influenced the lives of just about everybody, iconic NBA basketball player Shaquille O'Neal included.
The retired sportsman was inducted into the Hall of Fame last week, and during his speech, he recounted his time babysitting his siblings and watching General Hospital. Not surprisingly, like many diehard GH fans, Shaq is a really big fan of Luke and Laura (Anthony Geary and Genie Francis)!
