Charles Barkley ate a life-changing churro and tried to bury the hatchet with San Antonio

James Dator
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.

Charles Barkley has apparently seen the light and tried to bury the hatchet with San Antonio on Monday night — all because of churros.

Chuck has a long history of beef with San Antonio, which he has never apologized for an always double-downed on. Much of the ire stems from his rant in 2014 that insulted the women of the city, and the city itself.

Now his change of heart isn’t so much admitting that he was wrong or that he slandered an entire city — but rather because he ate a churro for the first time. At this point we need to question Barkley’s life choices that led to a 54-year-old man living his entire life without eating a churro. Especially a man who ...

  • Spent five years in Phoenix without eating a churro.
  • Spent five years in Houston without eating a churro.
  • Said he would eat a churro in 2014, but took three years to eat a churro.

How do you go that long in those cities without eating a dang churro?
