I have Charles Barkley's autogragh... somewhere. The year Target Center opened (1990), the 76ers were in town for a pre-season game against the T-wolves. The next morning I was at the airport at 6am. While waiting at the gait the 76ers walked by, Sir Charles was talking with someone (probably a team official). When the guy walked away, Charles was standing alone, so I went up to him and he obliged by signing the envelope my ticket was in. I asked him how he liked playing at Target Center? He responded, "Ah dunno, its just like every other arena." He could have been playing in Chicago, New Orleans, or LA and they would have all been the same. I know when I played in high school, they fudged heights a little in the program. Charles is always listed as 6'6", I'm 6'3" and as I remember it (it was a long time ago), as I was talking with Chuck, I wasn't looking up at him much.
