The ongoing track and field Olympic Trials have been nothing short of thrilling. But Hayward Field received a special treat when Snoop Dogg made a surprise appearance on the track. The Olympics and the legendary rapper sure do make an unlikely pair, but they are kindred spirits. The two go way back! Snoop has previously graced the Tokyo Summer Games along with Kevin Hart. Their synergy and hilarious commentary became the cynosure of all eyes.

The rapper was there to support the athletes and ran in a 200m exhibition race. Snoop Dogg spent time with Noah Lyles, Ato Boldon, Sha’Carri Richardson and Wallace Spearmon during his visit. But one track and field star missed out on meeting the legend. World Championships bronze medalist Deanna Price was looking forward to speaking to Snoop. But that didn’t stop Price from letting the rapper know how she feels! And she came up with a zany offer as well. 

Deanna Price’s unique offer to Snoop Dogg has us floored

Deanna Price might be the one of the most formidable women’s thrower in history, ranking #2. However, the athlete couldn’t help but fangirl over the 2-time MTV VMAs winner post her event. USATF shared a snippet from the Olympian enthusiastically speaking about Snoop Dogg. They captioned it, “What do you say, @snoopdogg ?? @deanna.price is ready to celebrate with you 💃👏🔥#TrackFieldTrials24 #JourneyToGold #MTUSA” After seeing the rapper at the event, Price had a special message for him. 

With a goofy grin she expressed, “I would love to pick up Snoop Dogg.” Price couldn’t help but hum the intro to “The Next Episode”. She then states, “I’m just like, I’m telling you, Snoop Dogg, if you ever meet me, I’ll pick you up, I’ll carry you.” Throughout the snippet, Price is unable to hold back the glee of being in the same vicinity as Snoop Dogg. 

She finally exclaims, “Wherever you want to go, not a problem. Piggyback! I’ll pick you up like a baby, wherever you’re at. I got you! I love you, I think you’re amazing! And I hope I get to meet you!” Price elaborated how just a glimpse of the rapper brought back several memories of her and her husband.

As hilarious as that would be, her animated reaction had fans asking to see this come true. But the World Champion had something else to celebrate after a thrilling event at Hayward Field. How did Deanna Price perform in the U.S. Olympic Trials? 

She has her eyes set on the French capital

Price represented the nation at the Tokyo Olympics with a set of gruesome injuries. However, this time around, the star athlete is vying for another shot at Olympic glory. The world champion threw an impressive 74.52 meters in her first go at the trials. This catapulted her to the top three almost immediately. Price effortlessly has punched her ticket to her third Summer Games. 

Despite competing with a fractured foot in Tokyo, Price threw a remarkable 73.09 meters at the event. Unfortunately, she fell 5.09 meters short of Poland’s Anita Wlodarczyk’s 78.48. Despite that, she found herself in the 8th position. She set an American record during the 2021 Olympic trials. The impressive throw of 80.31 is also her personal best, a record that still stands to this day. Price will soon be locking horns with current #1 Camryn Rogers, with a personal best of 78.32 meters. 

The star athlete last competed at the 2023 World Athletics Championships in Budapest. Her remarkable throw of 75.41m helped her clinch the third place. This was the same event that made her the first woman from the US to win a medal in any women’s throw event in 2019. With an impressive 77.54 meters, Price had clinched a gold in the 2019 World Athletics Championships in Qatar.

While Price has dominated the track with her impressive performances, fans are still going gaga over her heartwarming proposition to Snoop Dogg. Now that Price is Paris-bound, fans are hoping he will finally accept her offer at the Games. With just a month left for the Summer Games, will we watch Deanna Price redeem herself in Paris?
