Did celebrity Alabama fan Drake just curse the Georgia Bulldogs?

Georgia’s undefeated season could be in jeopardy for one unusual reason.

A video began making the rounds on the internet of popular rapper Drake saying “go dawgs” following Future’s party in Atlanta.

What makes his support significant is the history the multi-platinum artist has of cursing teams with his fandom.

The Drake curse craze first began back in 2012 when he became a fixture of the Kentucky men’s basketball program after it won a national championship. Since then the Wildcats have not won a championship and have often lost in the tournament on its biggest stage.

His other list of athletes and teams that haven’t faired well since his support has been Connor McGregor, Johnny Manziel, Andrew Wiggins, the Golden State Warriors and yes even the Alabama Crimson Tide. The Crimson Tide famously lost 44-16 in the national championship to Clemson after Drake released a video supporting it.

Bulldogs fans do have a glimmer of hope as Drake did say in the video he still roots for Alabama, but as history has shown team usually would prefer to avoid any form of his fandom at all costs.
