Rapper Snoop Dogg visited Fayetteville to perform. Of course, he wanted to meet Arkansas quarterback Ryan Mallett. Naturally, ArkansasSports360.com readers were curious, putting the blog item among the most-read for 2010.

Imagine a boxing match between Ole Miss coach Houston Nutt and Jose Canseco. It’s being commentated by a radio personality in Florida Gators’ gear. Snoop Dogg is providing the soundtrack as fans watch inside a newly renovated War Memorial Stadium. A SEC replay official works the big screen.

Wha…?
