Charles Barkley received 53 dozen Krispy Kreme donuts from Shaq and the Inside the NBA crew on his 53rd birthday

It’s not every day that you turn 53. It is a memorable birthday and one that you can never forget, especially if you are Sir Charles Barkley.

Back in 2016, the Chuckster celebrated his 53rd birthday. A huge milestone for him. One that was made even bigger when Shaquille O’Neal, Ernie Johnson, Kenny Smith, and the rest of the Inside the NBA crew got him 53 dozen Krispy Kreme donuts to celebrate the day.

A gift that left Sir Charles stunned and wondering what they would do with all that original glaze.

A heck of a prank from the crew. A delicious one that was also quite an expensive one, to say the least. Although, given the crew’s new contracts it’s doubtful their wallets felt it.

53 dozen Krispy Kreme donuts is definitely an expensive prank. But, it is one that will have no effect on the wallets of Charles Barkley and the crew. Why? Well, Sir Charles and the rest of the crew have agreed to a long-term $100 million deal to stay with TNT.

With that kind of money, they could buy their own Krispy Kreme franchise. Something that wouldn’t be too far-fetched for Barkley. Shaq already owns one.
