At 7-feet tall and wearing a very long black sweater, Shaquille O’Neal doesn’t quite fit the traditional image of Santa Claus.

(Video) Kevin Hart Donates $250,000 To The Philadelphia School System!
That’s right Kevin, give back! The funny man is putting on for his city. With recent budget cuts in the city of brotherly love, Kevin Hart took it upon himself to donate $250,000, so that the school system could purchase new computers. Back in September, a student passed away due to an asthma attack and NO NURSE at the school (Isn’t that some kind of WRONG or ILLEGAL?!). This is what the cuts in Philly are doing to the students, so I’m sure they’re loving the comedian right now. What a way to stand up. Kevin plans to surprise some kiddies by making stops at a few schools in his hometown today with Mayor Michael Nutter. Oh, would I love to be there.
