Charles Barkley had a 16-year-long career in the NBA. During his time in the NBA, Barkley won a plethora of accolades apart from the ultimate prize in an NBA title. Moreover, Charles was also a popular face during his playing days.
After retiring from the NBA, each player has a different approach to life, and Charles Barkley decided to stay in touch with the league but as an analyst. He may now be one of the top-paid NBA analysts in the world, but let’s take a look at an incident that took place some years ago, precisely in 2008.
Charles Barkley’s Eagerness For Sex Got Him Arrested
Speaking of the incident that took place on December 31, 2008, the former NBA star was arrested in Arizona for driving under the Influence (DUI). At the time, it became a piece of big news. After all, Chuck was a popular former NBA star.
But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Following his arrest, Barkley was questioned, and the 11-time NBA All-Star unveiled that the reason behind his arrest was simply his urgency to have sex with a hot girl. Yes, you read that right.
Via Fox News:
When Barkley was arrested in Scottsdale, Ariz., early Wednesday after running a stop sign, the former NBA forward allegedly told the officer: “You want to know the truth? I was gonna drive around the corner and get a b— j–,” according to the notes in the incident report.
Barkley was pulled over in Scottsdale’s Old Town area on New Year’s Eve and submitted to a blood test administered by the Gilbert Police Department.
“I am disappointed that I put myself in that situation,” Barkley said Wednesday in a statement to The Associated Press. “The Scottsdale police were fantastic. Now it is a legal matter and I will not comment further until it is resolved.”
The 45-year-old Barkley, now an NBA television commentator, failed standard field sobriety tests after the officer smelled alcohol on him, and he was arrested.
Considering Barkley has himself admitted to being arrested for punching people several times, the only silver lining from the incident was the fact that he was respectful towards the officers, and the then 45-year-old didn’t cause any further trouble.
