Snoop Dogg’s credit card was declined during dinner at a restaurant in Italy — so he repaid the owners with five free tickets to the much-anticipated 2026 Winter Olympics snowboarding finals.
“Grazie, Snoop!” Sofia Valmadre, daughter of the restaurant’s owners, said in a video posted on X.
The 54-year-old hip hop legend — who’s in Milan-Cortina working as an NBC corespondent for the Olympic games — ordered a cheeseburger, chicken wings, chicken nuggets and french fries at the gastropub Cronox in the town of Livigno, according to Valmadre.
When it was time to pay, his credit card didn’t go through, causing an embarrassing moment for the world-famous “Gin and Juice” rapper.
Instead of getting irked, the restaurant owners told him not to worry about paying and to take the food for free, Valmadre told NBC Los Angeles.
“He sent his staff to take [the card] and pay, but they couldn’t pay. I don’t know why, it wasn’t going,” Valmadre said. “So my mother told him that it was OK [to take the food] without paying.”
After the money mishap, Snoop repaid the family-run eatery, known for tourist-friendly late-night pizzas and salads, with far more than the cost of the grub.
He sent them five coveted tickets to the men’s snowboard halfpipe final, Valmadre said.
Snoop Dogg — who famously raps that he’s “laid back, with my mind on my money and my money on my mind mind” — hasn’t said when or why his card was declined.
The feel-good moment blew up online earlier this week, with fans loving that even the “Nuthin’ But A ‘G’ Thang” rapper has to deal with annoying financial transactions.
“So @SnoopDogg has real-people problems too. His credit card company must be sweatin’ now!” one fan wrote under NBC News’ X video.
“Good doggy,” another wrote.
Snoop Dogg, who was named Team USA’s first-ever honorary coach, has been having a blast at the Olympic games, where he even scored a snowboarding lesson from gold medalist Shaun White.
