Charles Barkley Is Going to Jail

Hope they've got XXXXL jumpsuits in AZ, 'cause Charles Barkley is officially going to jail.

Barkley just pled guilty to 2 counts of driving under the influence and pleaded "responsible" to running a stop sign for the December 31 incident in Scottsdale.

Barkley was sentenced to 10 days in jail -- but will only do five if he completes an alcohol education program. Barkley was also fined $2,000.

Barkley will begin his sentence on March 21 -- but it's unclear if he will serve time in Arizona's famed Tent City Jail, where they make the inmates wear pink.

As for the gun cops say they found in Barkley's car on the night of the arrest -- no charges were ever filed.

At least it's better than Nick Nolte's mughot.

I guess it's safe to say he'll never be elected Governor of Alabama!

Just wanted to clarify, at this "Tent City" facility the inmates wear pink underwear. The jumpsuits are those "old-school" black and white striped things.

Barkley in pink undies that is punishment enough.

Barkley Given Work Release
24 February 2009 5:35 PM, PST

Basketball great Charles Barkley has been granted permission to work during his upcoming 10-day jail term for drink driving - so he'll only spend his nights behind bars.

The sporting legend was sentenced to prison time after pleading guilty to two charges of driving under the influence (DUI) on Monday relating to his 31 December arrest in Arizona.

He's due to begin his sentence at Lower Buckeye Jail on 21 March - but TV personality Barkley will get to spend the majority of his day outside of his cell, to allow him to continue working.

However, Sheriff Joe Arpaio tells TMZ.com if Barkley fails to abide by the 8pm to 6am lockdown, his permit will immediately be revoked.
