Canadian rapper Drake is one of the Kentucky Wilcats basketball team's most high profile celebrity fans. The multiplatinum recording artist is frequently seen donning their blue threads and cheering on John Calipari's squad from the stands. Last year, he even famously sat with the team in their war room on Selection Sunday.
Kentucky was the closest thing college basketball's had to a juggernaut in decades. At 38-0, they were the prohibitive favorites to close the season undefeated national champions.
Feeling good about the Cats' chances, Drake made a pretty hefty bet with fellow rapper The Game on the team during Saturday night's Final Four match-up versus Wisconsin.
However, the Badgers played the role of spoilers, taking it to UK in a way they hadn't experience all season. Wisconsin prevailed 71-64, to move on to face Duke in the title game Monday night.
Check out the details of Drake's failed wager below (via The Game & Drizzy's respective Instagram accounts):
