A Conversation for Dwarf Throwing
Charles Barkley, Basketball Player

Charles Barkley is a very large person who recently retired from many years in the US National Basketball Association (NBA). As NBA players go, he is not particularly tall, maybe 6' 8", but he was one of the shortest players ever to win the rebounding title for a season. This is primarily due to a great sense of position on the court, good quickness, and extreme strength.
He is also quite outspoken, and very much the party animal, spending much time in bars while travelling during a season. On one occasion, an obnoxious bar patron apparently tried to make a name for himself by hassling Mr. Barkley. This resulted in the patron being tossed through a glass partition in the bar. This also resulted in the night time talk show gag, "What does Charles Barkley call the Seven Dwarfs?" Answer, "Darts."
