HBO's hit series Game of Thrones might contain some real-life lessons about family, but at the end of the day its still a fantasy show for most of us. However, the show apparently is startlingly realistic for at least one artist out there.
Namely, rapper Snoop Dogg, who seems to believe that the dragon-infested world of GoT is real ... or at least was real. When a reporter for the New York Post asked him about being a fan of the series, Snoop replied: I watch it for historic reasons, to try to understand what this world was based on before I got here.
Of course, this world -- a.k.a., Earth -- and the Game of Thrones world of Westeros are a little different. Needless to say, one actually is real and the other is based on a series of fantasy books.

Snoop Dog is a flipping idiot.

YOU KNOW NOTHING, SNOOP DOGG!
Maroon.
Agreed. A product of the ghetto and public education, as well as smoking too much weed.
Snoop Dogg Thinks”
Now that’s funny
While it didn’t actually happen it IS based on history. He took a handful of real world dynastic kerfuffles and turned them into a high fantasy story. So he’s half right.
Maybe he actually lives in Westeros...
I am curious....when did dragons become extinct?
Seems some people cannot tell reality form someone else’s fantasy. Drugs?
If you took a poll in Colorado....40-percent of adults would tell you it’s true and from French or Brit history. But 50-percent of the people who watched Amish Mafia thought it was real and true.
White people...smh
Yep, definitely a Hillary voter.
Yes, George RR Martin is an avid student of medieval history, so there are details in GoT that are somewhat accurate when it comes to detailing life back then.
However, if Snoop is referring to Dragons and all that, then yeah...he's been hitting the hippy lettuce too much.
He knows good weed
wow... what a democrat
If the KKK came up with a caricature of a black man that was intended to be utterly offensive ... it would be Snoop Dog.
Smoke what he gets his hands on and you would think Breaking Bad was the story of the first president of the United States too.
