When Charles Barkley ran a stop sign and got charged with DUI for rushing to get oral s*x: "I was gonna drive around the corner and get a b**w job"
Charles Barkley had a legendary NBA career that deservedly landed him in the Naismith Basketball Memorial Hall of Fame. The 11-time All-Star was also named in the NBA's 50th and 75th Anniversary teams. In retirement, Barkley has become one of the most well-liked basketball analysts due to his comedic side.
Barkley, though, found himself in hot water on New Year's Eve nearly 14 years ago. The Inside the NBA host was arrested and charged with DUI after running a stop sign in Scottsdale, Arizona.
His excuse for his erratic driving? The 11-time All-NBA was rushing to receive oral sex from his passenger. The police report filed at the time said:
"He told me that he ran the stop sign because he was in a hurry to pick up the girl I saw get in the passenger seat. He asked me to admit that she was 'hot'. He asked me, 'You want the truth?'
The police report continued:
"When I told him I did, he said, 'I was gonna drive around the corner and get a b**w job'. He then explained that she had given him a b**w job one week earlier and said it was the best one he had ever had in his life."
Barkley, who had a blood alcohol level of .149, attempted to negotiate his way out of the arrest on his arrival at the police station. The police report indicated that Barkley told an employee that if they helped him get out of the DUI, he would tattoo their name on his rear.

Charles Barkley has been very vocal with his criticism of Kevin Durant. The NBA Hall of Famer recently labeled Durant as 'insecure' in an interview with Bleacher Report's Taylor Rooks, saying:
"I actually like Kevin. I think that he's a great player. I think he's actually a good dude. I think he's insecure at times."

Durant quickly caught wind of Barkley's comments and wasted no time firing back, noting that he has never interacted with the Hall of Famer:
"This clown does not have g14 classification to speak on the god; we’ve never had a real human interaction. … carry on haaaa"
Barkley has had plenty of criticism for the future Hall of Famer, as he has been very vocal about Durant's decision to join the Golden State Warriors.
