Former NBA great and Hall of Fame forward Charles Barkley loves attention and gets it any way he can.  If not being hilarious on TNT’s NBA coverage, or showing off his janky golf swing, Barkley is usually up for anything.

Barkley popped in on a Phoenix ABC-affiliate KNXV to their sports show, and was a bit early.  What you get is Barkley in the middle of the weather report, which probably isn’t a problem except for the fact that he practically blocked out the whole 7 day forecast.

Barkley is in town to participate in the pro-am portion of the Waste Management Phoenix Open.
