Charles Barkley appeared on Conan on Thursday and one thing is clear: Sir Charles tips like a champ.
Charles Barkley offers thoughts on tipping and the cheapest athletes he knows
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
A renowned excellent tipper, Barkley told the story of winning $700,000 at a blackjack table before giving the dealer a $25,000 tip. Naturally this was followed by some gentle prodding, prompting Sir Charles to spill the beans on who he thinks are the cheapest athletes he knows.
The short list: Scottie Pippen, Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods. It’s Charles’ belief that the secret to their wealth is that they never tip.
Let this be a lesson to servers everywhere.
