In a groundbreaking move, the Arizona Bowl has announced a multi-year sponsorship deal, renaming the annual event the “Snoop Dogg Arizona Bowl Presented by Gin & Juice By Dre and Snoop.” Scheduled for December 28, 2024, at 2:30 PM MST, this marks the first NCAA Bowl Game to feature an alcohol partner as the presenting sponsor.

“I’ve sent many players through my SYFL to colleges (and the NFL) so it’s only fitting that I bring the ‘juice’ back to college football,” said Snoop Dogg. “Dr. Dre and I are excited to bring our brand to the next level with this partnership, and we’re going to make the Arizona Bowl into a game day experience like never before.”

Gin & Juice By Dre and Snoop, the inaugural ready-to-drink product from Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre’s premium spirits company, will headline the event, named after Snoop’s iconic 1994 track from his debut album, Doggystyle.
