In a recent conversation on the New Heights podcast hosted by Jason and Travis Kelce, comedian Will Ferrell reminisced about one of Saturday Night Live’s funniest sketches that surprisingly never made it to air. This chat took place on January 10th. The former Philadelphia Eagles center, who is set to debut his own ESPN late-night show this week, sought advice from Ferrell regarding comedy matters.
The funny man, known for his acting as an elf, reminisced about some well-known sports personalities who have great wit and comic delivery. This Elf actor, a diehard Lakers fan, shared his experience of meeting the legendary Shaquille O’Neal from the Lakers during an episode of SNL.
Despite Kelsey Grammer serving as the host, it was Shaquille O’Neal who captivated the audience with his witty remarks. “He killed it,” Ferrell reminisced. “He was incredibly humorous and effortless in his delivery to the point that one of his sketches was removed because Shaq’s performance outshone the host’s,” he continued.
As a devoted admirer, I’m sharing an interesting behind-the-scenes tidbit: In one instance, Will Ferrell and Harper, portrayed by themselves, chose not to air a particular sketch because the ex-football player, Shaq, outperformed Grammer in it. A memory that will forever hold a special place in my heart is when Ferrell donned the uniform of a Staples Center security guard and escorted the NBA legend, Shaq, off the stadium premises back in 2013.
