Noah Lyles Gets Special Gift From Snoop Dogg at Paris Olympics

U.S. sprinter Noah Lyles has received an unexpected gift from one of the world’s most well-known celebrities, Snoop Dogg. The famous American rapper has already made a significant impression on the 2024 Olympics, starting the games as the torch bearer and attending various key events.

Snoop Dogg was seen alongside Lyles’ mother at a recent track and field event, showing his support for the 27-year-old athlete as he pursued Olympic gold.

He has been an enthusiastic supporter of the United States team, also giving out gifts to notable U.S. Olympians.

Lyles shared on social media that he received a special gift from Snoop Dogg – a gold chain featuring the rapper’s “Death Row Records” brand.

After receiving the chain, Lyles posted a picture on Instagram, showcasing the chain and expressing his gratitude with a caption that read, “Thanks, Snoop Dogg.”

Unfortunately, the U.S. star’s time at the Olympic Games may be cut short after testing positive for COVID-19.

Despite running with the respiratory illness, Lyles managed to claim the bronze medal in the 200-meter event, though he struggled with fatigue.

Lyles will leave Paris having secured two medals: a gold in the 100-meter final with a time of 9.784 seconds and a bronze in the 200-meter final, where he finished in 19.70 seconds.

Along with his Olympic medals, Lyles will now have a new piece of jewelry to cherish – Snoop Dogg’s “Death Row Records” chain.
