"Often the colorful personality, Barnes once refused to board a plane from Louisville to St. Louis. Because the flight was scheduled to arrive (Central Time) before its departure time (Eastern Time), Barnes famously said, "I ain't getting in no damn time machine." He rented a car instead."

Marvin's nickname was "Bad News" and there was a reason for that too lol What’s the reason From Wikipedia: "Barnes's nickname "Bad News" was derived from his frequent off-court problems, which began when he was a senior at Central High School.[11] He was part of a gang that attempted to rob a bus. Barnes was quickly identified, as he was wearing his state championship jacket with his name embroidered on it. His case was handled by the juvenile justice system. In 1972, while playing center for Providence College, Barnes attacked a teammate with a tire iron. He later pleaded guilty to assault, paid the victim $10,000 and was placed on probation. Barnes violated probation on October 9, 1976 when an unloaded .38 caliber pistol and five loose bullets were found in his bag at the Detroit Metro Airport as he was preparing to board a flight to St. Louis. [12] On May 16, 1977, he was sent to the Adult Correctional Institute in Cranston, Rhode Island,[13] where he served 152 days.[14] Upon release he returned to the Detroit Pistons. Barnes was later arrested for burglary, drug possession, and trespassing.[15] Because of his drug use, Barnes's NBA career was cut short and he wound up homeless in San Diego in the early 1980s. After several rehab programs, Barnes started reaching out to youth in South Providence, where he grew up, urging them not to make the same mistakes he had.[16]" |

"Detroit traded Barnes to the Buffalo Braves at the start of the 1978–79 NBA season. Barnes then played for the Boston Celtics for one season, and with Boston, Barnes later admitted to cocaine use on the bench, "Yeah, I was doing it on the bench. I was playing for the Celtics, and I was sitting next to Nate Archibald and somebody else, and I was snorting cocaine right there on the bench while the game was going on. They all moved away from me. I had it under a towel. I guess I don’t need to say that my career didn’t last much longer after that."[9][10]"

Robbing a bus with your name on the jacket. Classic.

Like, that's all the Wikipedia stuff. I've seen interviews with former players talking about some absolutely bat-shit crazy Marvin Barnes stories.
