(New Buffalo Township, MI) - Rap legend Snoop Dogg apparently passed through the area over the weekend, as his tour bus was outside one of the marijuana dispensaries on Michigan 239 in New Buffalo Township on Saturday.

 

Dani Fellows, a receptionist at The Bloomery, said the tour bus, emblazoned with large images of the rap icon on both sides, pulled up at about 10 a.m. There, Fellows said, a few people from the bus came in, purchased some products placed into a medium-sized bag, and then left about 20 minutes later. “The Dogg Squad, they called them, had come in. They had purchased some pre-rolls and stuff."

 

Fellows said she took pictures of the tour bus while leaving for the day, but didn’t see Snoop Dogg, who might have remained on the bus. Regardless, the tour bus attracted a lot of people who took pictures of it.

 

“I think they said he was sleeping. I know he had a tour that night. Plus, it was like a last-minute stop. I think it was like a security thing,” she said.

 

The 31-year-old New Buffalo native, who now resides in Weesaw Township, said it was thrilling to see the tour bus, and even more so being a fan of the rap legend.

 

“It was exciting. There are so many dispensaries but they had stopped here was pretty awesome,” she said.

 

Snoop Dogg, otherwise known as Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr., hit the rap scene in the early 1990s and gained notoriety both for working with other prolific figures of the medium like Dr. Dre, as well as for a public persona with an affinity for the consumption of marijuana.
