Cool story to share about Shaquem.
@LongwoodKnight1 works for a company that has a relationship with Margaritaville, the mega-brand owned by Jimmy Buffet. He was recently in a marketing session where they were brainstorming ideas about who could be a "godparent" for their first cruise ship.
For those unaware, "godparenting" is a big thing when it comes to ships:

Anyway, @LongwoodKnight1 suggested Shaquem Griffin. The Margaritaville people loved it and worked out a deal. Shaquem will be at the christening next month and his name will be affixed on the ship's permanent plaque. Margaritaville was paying Shaquem for his time and he requested the majority of it go to charity.
Nice work, @LongwoodKnight1!
