Celtic call on Snoop Dogg to book his tickets for title party

CELTIC Football Club has called on famous fan Snoop Dogg to come to Glasgow to celebrate the hoops’ premiership victory after the rapper promised a “title party” last month.

According to the Daily Record, the Doggystyle rapper said last month that “the passport is out of the safe” and that he would throw a huge party in honour of Ange Postecoglou’s men if they were crowned title winners.

Snoop also said the celebrations would be his treat as he offered to splash out on champagne and Indian curry – one of his favourite cuisines.

After Celtic clinched the Cinch Premiership last night at Tannadice, the official Celtic Twitter page reached out to the famous rapper to get on a plane and join the party.

They wrote: "Get those flights booked, @SnoopDogg! #cinchPrem CHAMPIONS!"

The LA rapper has said that he has been a Celtic fan since 2005 after he was gifted a Hoops jersey by DJ Big Al in return for recording a line for the disk jockey’s mix tape.

Snoop liked the gift so much that he took a keen interest in Celtic and even considered buying shares in 2012.

And according to The Daily Record, he said he would jump on a plane to Scotland and splurge on a big celebration.

He told the Record: “My Bhoys are not there yet but after their win against Rangers, they are getting close to winning the championship.

“Snoop hasn’t booked his ticket just yet but the passport is out of the safe.

“As soon as they are champions, you better believe I am on that flight to Glasgow.”

He added: “The night is going to go off and whatever they want to do, it’s all going to be on Snoop.

“The champagne is going to be out and we are going to get it poppin’.

“For real, I love Indian food and always get the best curry in the UK.

"So if there are any good Indian restaurants in Glasgow, we can start the night there and I will hire out the whole place.”

Even if he doesn’t make the title party, Snoop will be making it to Scotland on August 26 to perform at Glasgow’s Ovo Hydro.
