Snoop Dogg may have had the most popular performance from the 2024 U.S. Track & Field Olympic Trials. On top of that, he may have a future career as a sports commentator!
Fans were loving day three of the Olympic Trials, as Snoop Dogg was not only featured as a guest commentator for NBC but also participated in a 200m run on the historic Hayward Field in Oregon.
Rocking a team USA shirt, featuring the late Kobe Bryan and matching American flag pants, Snoop Dogg took to the line against Ato Boldon and Wallace Spearmon.
Although Snoop Dogg, at 52 years old, may not be Olympian material, taking third place behind his two other competitors, he still ran a respectable 34.44-second 200m.
“34.44 for a 52-year-old? Ain’t bad,” he said, pleased with his performance.

After his big performance at the trials, Snoop Dogg put on his commentator hat. Fans particularly loved his comments during the steeplechase: “Oh, he’s jumping on top of the hurdle. You can do that?! That was a cold trick right there. I like that one. Went off the tippy-top.”
