Photo: Snoop Lion Won Weed In A Boxing Match Bet
Snoop Lion apparently placed a big bet on Saturday night's Floyd Mayweather - Canelo Alvarez boxing match, which resulted in a win for Mayweather. But our beloved Snoop didn't wager money—no, Snoop laid down his confidence in the boxer by hedging a bet with weed.
He posted a photo of his winnings on Instagram, and it is a massive bag of the sticky green stuff that he holds proudly, like the champ that he is. The photo is captioned thusly:
Thanks to the champ money may for winning me a pound from my mexican buddy Lui !! U r the pound for pound best! N I'm gonna smoke 2 dat !!! Hahahahahahahah. @bigglala where u at ??
