This Dogg's Too Big for Colgate

Colgate's Spring Party Weekend potential rap headliner Snoop Dogg will not be bringing his entourage to Hamilton.

The Colgate Marron-News reports that in a meeting of many top administrators Monday, it was decided that Colgate and the Village of Hamilton do not have sufficinet resources -- security or logistics -- to handle the large crowd that Snoop Dogg would be expected to attract.

Spring Party Weekend planners are looking for a replacement. 

This review of a recent Snoop Dogg concert in Santa Ana, CA seems to point out some of the administration's concerns. Snoop Dogg is associated with pro-marijuana issues as detailed in this concert review from the Tampa Bay Times.
