The Los Angeles Clippers are building a new $2 billion stadium, the Intuit Dome. In a presser, the Clippers owner Steve Ballmer and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver spoke about it for the first time. Ballmer revealed that the stadium is still under construction and will be a one-of-a-kind experience for the fans. However, when the topic of the new Clippers stadium came up on the All-Smoke Podcast, it became a laughing stock, and it had to be because the guest who starred on the show was none other than Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr. aka Snoop Dogg.
When the host Stephen Jackson asked Snoop about his thoughts on the new Clippers stadium he complimented the owner of the Clippers Steve Ballmer and said, “I love Ballmer for what he does community-wise like he’s real active in the city of Inglewood where the stadium is built.”

But then the other host, Matt Barnes revealed that there is a section in the stadium only for Clippers fans. And there you have to follow a different set of rules as the management will tell you when you can stand up or clap or the jersey you can wear. And the worst part is you cannot even sell your tickets to anyone.
Listening to that Snoop made a hysterical comment saying, “Well, it’s going to be kinda empty in that motherf****r,” and further went on to reminisce about how the Clippers used to sell their tickets for $3 on the floor and got rid of Clipper Darrell even after he showed his loyalty to the Clippers. However, the main question in everybody’s mind is when is the new Clippers stadium’s grand opening?
The 2026 All-Star will mark the grand opening of the Intuit Dome
The NBA’s highly anticipated 2026 All-Star Game will mark the debut of the Los Angeles Clippers’ cutting-edge Intuit Dome, which is scheduled to open in August. The All-Star Game’s comeback to Southern California in 2026 is noteworthy as it will be the first time since 2018 when it was planned at the Staples Center (now Crypto.com Arena).
