My Afternoon With Snoop Lion, President Of Weed
I went to LA this fall to profile Snoop Lion (formerly Snoop Dogg, formerly Snoop Doggy Dogg) for GQ. You can read the whole story right here. Suffice it to say, it's extremely weed-heavy.

Remember the lullaby afternoons of September, when we all figured we'd see a Heisman winner who merited the award?
