Argentina Mocks Drake's Lost Bet with Kendrick Lamar Reference
Argentina's national team playfully jabbed rapper Drake after his hefty wager on Canada backfired in the Copa América semi-final. Drake, a native Canadian, reportedly placed a $300,000 bet on his home country to upset the formidable Argentines.
However, Argentina emerged victorious with a 2-0 win, thanks to goals from Julian Alvarez and Lionel Messi.
The Argentine team's official social media account took a subtle but clear swipe at Drake, referencing Kendrick Lamar's diss track "Not Like Us." The post, which has since been deleted, included a picture of the celebrating Argentina team with the caption "Not like us @champagnepapi," a play on Drake's social media handle.
This playful jab comes amidst a string of high-profile betting losses for Drake. The rapper recently lost significant sums on unsuccessful bets for the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA Finals and the Edmonton Oilers in the Stanley Cup Finals.
While the sum lost in the Copa América bet is unlikely to faze Drake financially, the social media banter adds another layer to the ongoing "Drake Curse" narrative surrounding his sports predictions.
