SNOOP QUIT POT TO EARN RESPECT OF FOOTBALLING DADS

Rapper SNOOP DOGG briefly quit smoking marijuana when he realised dads on the sidelines at his Orange County, California youth American football league disapproved of his laidback ways. The GIN + JUICE hitmaker was starting out as a youth football coach for his eldest son's team and he accepted his doped-up persona didn't impress other dads. Snoop tells Rolling Stone magazine, "I saw me coming to practice smellin' like weed, my vision half-blurred, and the parents lookin' at me like, Snoop Dogg the gangster. "So instead of the parents checkin' me sayin', `Hey, Snoop, you smell like weed, why you comin' to practice high?' I took it out of my game so none of the parents would get at me foul, and they'd let me coach. "I did it for two or three months."
