Snoop Dogg says he hopes to open burger van at Celtic Park

Snoop Dogg says he hopes to set up a burger van at Celtic's stadium and wants to serve fans himself.

The US rapper, 53, has described the football club's supporters as "special" and the best fans in European football.

And Snoop, who played Glasgow's OVO Hydro arena in 2023, has also said he strongly identifies with the club's mascot Hoopy the Hound.

He said a fast-food van at Celtic Park would become a foodie "Paradise" which is a nickname for the ground in the Parkhead area of the city.

Snoop told the Sunday Mail: "I would love to bring a pop-up burger [van] to a sports stadium to show fans that food at stadiums can be good.

"It's got to be Celtic Park, man. The secret to a good burger is the love in the preparation. The ground beef has got to be mixed with some secret spices, then add a good quality cheese and some maple-cured bacon.

"The Celtic fans are gonna love it, and to make sure they are just right, Snoop is going to be serving them himself."

But he said he would not be taking his culinary ventures to Rangers - Celtic's Old Firm rivals at Ibrox.

The Drop It Like It's Hot star told the paper: "Am I going to bring my burgers to Rangers as well? Nah, I think we will give that a miss."

The musician has previously spoken of investing in Celtic, similar to Hollywood actor Ryan Reynolds's involvement with Wrexham FC.

Snoop has already published a cookbook and claims to have spoken to chef Gordon Ramsay about a possible venture in Glasgow together.

The keen sports fan worked as a correspondent for NBC at the Paris Olympics last year, and has launched two youth football leagues, as well as being a vocal advocate for pay equality for female athletes.
