Celebrities in North America have been increasingly drawn to owning professional sports teams, turning it into a fashionable trend. Actors and musicians are constantly searching for a team to call their own and make their mark in the sports world.

The sale of the Ottawa Senators has become one of the most fiercely contested purchases in recent memory.

Snoop Dogg, through his group Neo Sparks, has entered the race, but they are facing potential disappointment in their bid for this franchise.

Frank Seravalli of thedailyfaceoff.com reports that Snoop Dogg's group is still scrambling to secure the necessary funds for the purchase. Their urgency in finding the money is a cause for concern, particularly considering the Senators' long-standing financial struggles.

Previous owners, such as Rod Bryden and Bruce Firestone, sought assistance from federal and provincial sources when they controlled the team in Kanata, located 10 to 20 kilometers west of the city's downtown core. Unlike other NHL organizations, the Senators have endured challenging times despite once being a powerhouse.

It is anticipated that the sale will be finalized within the next week or two, and the new ownership will be announced. The outcome of this highly watched transaction will undoubtedly capture the attention of sports enthusiasts and fans alike.
