Snoop Dogg has some explaining to do.
The Pittsburgh Steelers are one of the NFL’s most iconic franchises, with a second-to-none fan base.
Thousands of Steelers fans, including rapper Snoop Dogg, packed Acrisure Stadium Sunday night to watch Pittsburgh take on the Dallas Cowboys.
While he was born in Long Beach, California, Snoop is a die-hard fan of the Steelers.
So when the Steelers took on the Dallas Cowboys in “Sunday Night Football” at Acrisure Stadium, he was there.
The team even posted a video of him wearing a custom Steelers letterman jacket, twirling his Terrible Towel, and waving around a helmet to pump up the crowd.

So, why is a man from the West Coast a fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers?
While talking to Peyton and Eli Manning on their podcast, Snoop Dogg explained that he fell in love with the team as a kid in the 1970s.
“I fell in love with their great defense, the way they move the ball, just the way they play football in general, it was fun to watch as a kid. As I became an adult, I fell more in love with them because I got the chance to meet the players, I got to meet Coach Cowher and Ben Roethlisberger and Jerome Bettis and the rest of the guys, and you know, I became a part of Steelers nation.”
