NBA star Shaquille O'Neal's Big Chicken restaurant has started to pop up in parts of Michigan, including the new location in Hartland.

Big Chicken in Hartland opened its doors in August, and now its founder, Shaquille O'Neal, is set to make an appearance.

Big Chicken is famous for its Louisiana-style fried chicken sandwiches, tasty menu options, and items named after people and significant aspects of Shaquille O'Neal's life, such as Charles Barkley, his bodyguard Uncle Jerome, and his nicknames Superman and Shaq Daddy.

When is Shaquille O'Neal Coming to Big Chicken in Hartland?

You're going to have to move quickly if you want to meet the NBA legend, as his appearance will take place today. I know this doesn’t give you much time to make plans. According to the Livingston Daily, O’Neal plans to arrive around 2 p.m. and will stay for as long as his schedule allows. Keep in mind that when it comes to celebrity appearances, they rarely start at the scheduled time. However, if you want to go, I suggest getting there early.

Where is Big Chicken located?

Big Chicken is located at 10490 Highland Road in Hartland.

More Big Chicken Locations Coming to Michigan

As of right now, there are only three Big Chicken locations in Michigan including Clio, Hartland, and Livonia. However, that is about to change as the company is eager to open 20 locations throughout Michigan including Ann Arbor, Lansing, Flint, Saginaw, Mount Pleasant, and more. They plan to have over 300 locations throughout the U.S.
