Snoop Dogg, an American rapper, expressed his “love” for Australian Rules football on Thursday ahead of his grand final performance.
Up to 100, 000 fans will be crowded on Saturday at the Melbourne Cricket Ground as the 53-year-old faces off against Brisbane.
At a function where no questions were asked, he told Australian media that he had been coming to this country for years and that he understood what this game meant.
It’s a way of life, not just a sport, as I am aware. He continued, “I just fell in love with the sport.”
“I’ve always watched it, but I never really understood it.”
It made me think of American football, rugby, and a few other things, but now that I understand it, I like it and want to know more before the grand finale.

The most well-known spectator sport in Australia is the AFL, which is similar to Ireland’s Gaelic football. It dates back to 1858.
Given that some of Snoop Dogg’s songs have used misogynistic and offensive lyrics, the choice for the grand final entertainment has been contentious in Australia.
The AFL was accused of hypocrisy because he hired him in August while also outlawing Adelaide star Izak Rankine for four games because of a homophobic slur.
The American’s hiring, known as Calvin Broadus, was defended by AFL chief Andrew Dillon.
He said, “I’ve had a lot of confidence in Snoop’s choice.”
He has appeared at the Olympics and a Super Bowl, and he will fit our stage.
Katy Perry and Robbie Williams were other grand-finalists in the past.
