In 2017, when the ‘One Chip Challenge’ was at its peak, the Inside the NBA crew tried their hand at the same as well.

Shaquille O’Neal loses a $20 bet, offers $50,000 to Charles Barkley

When Kenny Smith brought up the ‘One Chip Challenge,’ Shaq instantly was down for the same. He bet Charles Barkley $20, claiming he won’t make a face while having the chip.

Shaq took a big bite, and almost ate his entire chip, and seemed to be fine for 15-20 seconds, before he started coughing, and then it hit him.

Seeing how others claimed that he had lost the bet, Shaq wanted to make it more entertaining for himself. He offered Chuck a cheque for $50,000 to his favorite charity, if Barkley ate the chip.
