Snoop Dogg is taking his Olympic comentating very seriously. He’s doing as many of the sports as he can in Paris before the athletes take over. And he’s making a list of the competitors he’s most excited to meet. Specifically, he wants to meet the Crip-walking horse from Tokyo 2021. “I’m definitely trying to meet him. Hopefully he’s in the Olympics so I can say, ‘What’s happening?’ to him,†Snoop told Time. “Bring him a couple of carrots, some apples or somethin’, know what I’m saying?†What Crip-walking horse, you ask? Glad we’re here to explain.

This isn’t Snoop Dogg’s first rodeo Olympics. In 2021, he co-hosted a ’lympos commentary show with Kevin Hart. In one memorable segment, Snoop marveled at the dressage competition, which looked more like C-walking to the LBC native. The rider/horsie combo is was Germany’s Isabell Werth, riding Bella Rose. Alas, Snoop misgendered a horse.

Unfortunately for Snoop, Bella Rose has retired and won’t be competing in France. Werth said on Instagram that Bella is “enjoying her retirement†and trying not to get pregnant by a pony named Via Bellani. Relatable queen.
