Noah Lyles unveils fresh details on his painful loss to Oblique Seville & explains why it will never happen again
Noah Lyles has explained why he lost to Oblique Seville at the Racers Grand Prix but vowed never to let it happen again on a global stage like the Olympics or World Championships.
On the sideline, Snoop Dogg also hung out with Noah Lyles’ mother Keisha Cane Bishop and was seen with reigning world 100m champion Sha’Carri Richardson. He also competed in a 200m race at the Hayward Field in Oregon, wearing a patriotic pair of Nike Pegasus 41 sneakers.
“I’ll tell you, that is a humble, cool as heck man…he’s just a cool guy. He’s not bringing no bad vibes. I asked him, ‘Hey man, you want to do the walk-in?’, and he was like, ‘I’m there.’ I then asked him, ‘Hey you mind helping with the briefcase?’ and he was like, ‘I’m there.’,” Noah Lyles told USA Track and Field.
He added that Snoop Dogg had no idea of what was in the briefcase as he thought it was money, just like many of Noah Lyles’ fans thought.
However, the briefcases carried different things on each including the kits and the "Yu-Gi-Oh!" cards, including all five pieces of Exodia which the reigning Olympic champion noted were very expensive.
“I heard what he thought was in the briefcase…what’s funny is that the card itself is worth a very significant money value even though he didn’t know it, it was technically money in the bank,” he added.
