Charles Barkley appeared on The Dan Patrick Show last week to do what he does best: Talk, talk, talk and talk some more. One of those nonsensical tangents included a retelling of his time hosting Saturday Night Live in 1993 with musical guests Nirvana. And as it turns out, Barkley has a great pot story about the biggest rock band in the world at the time. 

“First of all, they were fantastic,” Barkley said. “All the guys were nice, and I think Courtney was there also.” With the pleasantries out of the way, Barkley got down to the good details. 

“Every time those guys from Nirvana opened their door I got like a contact high. it was like one of those big mushroom clouds came, like I was scared to go to the airport because I didn’t want to–do not go to the airport. But every time they opened up that door, that big mushroom cloud.” 

The former NBAer also goes on to tell many other pot stories including someone he played with at Auburn who couldn’t make a shot if he wasn’t high. Watch below.
