Snoop Dogg met up with Conor McGregor during his stop in Ireland and even took the time to visit the UFC star’s pub a day before his show.
On Sunday (September 24), the Long Beach native stopped by the Black Forge Inn in Dublin, where he met the MMA fighter and his mother. Tha Doggfather took the opportunity to meet fans, grab a bite and even pose with McGregor’s championship belt.
“Snoop with my mom, happy as hell,” the 35-year-old athlete captioned a photo series documenting the rapper’s appearance. “Welcome to @theblackforgeinn, Snoop! Good luck with the sold out show tomorrow night!”

In early September, the West Coast rap legend announced that he would be performing in Armenia later in the month, but also mentioned right next to it the Republic of Artsakh, which is not a part of the aforementioned West Asian country.

Artsakh is a breakaway state on the border of Eastern Europe and West Asia, whose territory is internationally recognized as part of Azerbaijan, which has been locked in a long-running and at times bloody dispute with Armenia over control of the region.
In the late 1980s, the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict resulted in roughly thirty thousand casualties and hundreds of thousands of refugees, according to Global Conflict Tracker.
Even after a ceasefire was declared in 1994, fighting between Armenian and Azerbaijani troops broke out again in late 2020, while in recent months blockades have been installed, limiting travel and supplies into Artsakh.
