Celtic have urged Snoop Dogg to book his flights to Glasgow for a party after clinching the Scottish Premiership title on Wednesday night.

With the Scottish Cup already in the bag, the Hoops drew 1-1 with Dundee United at Tannadice Park to regain their crown from rivals Rangers.

Celtic will lift the trophy on Saturday when they host Motherwell at Parkhead and immediately after securing the title last the night, the club were calling on Snoop Dogg to get on his way to Glasgow.

The official club account tweeted, "Get those flights booked, @SnoopDogg!"

The post quickly went viral on social media, garnering 4,000 retweets and 24,000 likes.

The bit of content is in relation to the rap legend's Celtic fandom. In a recent interview, the 50-year-old had said he would fly to Glasgow to pop the champagne and party with the squad if they won the league.

"In Scotland, Celtic are my boys," he told the Daily Record.

“This season they are back playing how we expect them to be and if they become Champions I will fly over to Glasgow to party with the players.

“The night in Glasgow will be on Snoop and you better believe if we are celebrating them being Champions, it’s gonna be a hell of a night.

"Glasgow is a crazy city and I don’t need an excuse to visit one of my favourite places in Europe – but to come over and party with the Champions of Scotland would be special 'fo Schizzle'.

“So Bhoys, don’t let me down and Snoop is gonna see you in May.”


Snoop had even said he would hire out an Indian restaurant and start the activities there. It remains to be seen if the Death Row records owner will follow through with his promise.

His love affair with Celtic began back in 2005 as when staying at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Glasgow, he was handed a green and white hooped shirt by DJ Big Al.

He once even asked if he could be a mascot for a game against Juventus in 2013 and previously announced his intentions to invest in the club.

Here's hoping Ange Postecoglou's side are dropping it like it's hot very soon because it really needs to happen.
