The matchup between Colorado and Colorado State was clearly an extremely exciting ticket on Saturday night, as a bevy of stars made the trip to watch Deion Sanders’ team.
Lil Wayne, who presented Sanders with a jersey earlier in the day, sang the Buffaloes’ walk-out song before the game.
He wore the same No. 17 “Tunechi” jersey that Sanders had gifted him.
Also in attendance were NBA star Kawhi Leonard and rapper Offset.
The latter took it upon himself to pump up the Colorado crowd, standing in front of the student section and clapping his hands.
“It’s so much excitement, it’s so much fan love,” he said during the game on ESPN. “I just love the energy.”

But those weren’t the only celebrities in attendance.
The Rock, who appeared with Sanders on ESPN’s “College Gameday,” was also there.
And so did Master P, Heat guard Kyle Lowry and Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups.
Leading up to the game, a war of words ensued between Sanders and Colorado State coach Jay Norvell, who criticized his local rival earlier in the week before Coach Prime fired back.

The tension continued into the match as tempers flared between the two teams and they became separated in midfield.
Colorado star Travis Hunter said some words to his rivals after that incident.
“They messed with the wrong team,” he said in a video captured by ESPN.
“All talk, no biting.”
Colorado and Colorado State are tied 14-14 at the time of writing.
