Charles Barkley, everyone’s favorite angry ex-baller/TNT analyst, completed a grueling mandatory sentence of 72 hours (that’s three whole days) in Tent City jail for a DUI charge he picked up just being his lovable self this past December. Barkley was spared the humiliation of wearing a prison uniform, which consists of an orange jumpsuit and some pink underpants just to remind inmates that they are all equally bitches.
The Hall of Famer was kept in a private area for his own safety and meals were brought to him. The only assaults he experienced were those of harsh words from inmates within shouting range, consisting mainly of fans from his hey day with the Suns, and murderous criminals expressing their rage. Barkley managed to complete his sentence with only slight fatigue and a few hurt feelings.
Barkley expressed that he realized he had done wrong, and just needed to face the consequences for his actions, or as he put it “take the beatdown.” Luckily for him, his ‘beatdown’ was short, painless, and experienced entirely in a velour track suit.
