Free Charles Barkley! Free Charles Bar....wait, what?! He's out? Already?! Nevermind then...

Charles Barkley is finally a free man again. Confused? For those of you who may have accidentily blinked over the weekend, Sir Charles officially completed his obligation to society by spending the weekend in a tent. And by "tent", I actually mean tent. Barkley's 36 hour stay in Maricopa County's tent city classifies as punishment for his New Year's Eve DUI because he was forced to spend a weekend in a tent with other evil-doers. Wait, this just in, Barkley was in the tent by himself, sectioned off from all of the menacing prisoners, and guards brought his meals directly to his tent.

You thought Paris Hilton's stay in the clink was ridiculous. At one point, Barkley was actually spotted signing autographs for the guards. Now I'm not a expert on rules for prison guards, but I'm 62% sure that's breaking a rule. Well, at least Barkley was forced to wear the county's mandatory jail uniform, including pink underwear. Woops, actually it turns out he didn't have to do that either. Since Barkley was given 12 hours of work release on Sunday and Monday, he just wore a blue Nike track suit. That's it, I'm done trying to figure this one out.

I guess this goes to show, if there's a place to get wasted, go speeding through town running stop signs, and upon being arrested, provide the explanation that you were trying to reach your hooker faster, it's Arizona. Ah, if only McCain would have won...
