\n\tThough Flav is from New York, home to the Red Sox\u2019s biggest rivals, the Yankees, he repped Boston through and through for the occasion. The rapper showed up decked out in a custom Flavor Flav Red Sox jersey, a red baseball<\/a> cap and matching red pants. And, of course, in Flavor Flav fashion, he also made sure to wear a blinged out red, white and blue version of his signature giant clock necklace.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhen Flav stepped out to the pitch, the announcer referred to him as \u201ca champion of all athletes.\u201d Unfortunately, his pitch was not enough to win the Red Sox the game as Boston lost to San Diego 8-6. Despite the loss, Flavor Flav let fans know that he had a great time the game. The Public Enemy cofounder shared an Instagram carousel<\/a> with highlights from his time at Fenway Park. In one video, Flav high-fived every Red Sox player in their dugout. In his post, Flavor Flav also shared that he ran into a special friend of his.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI ran into my girl [Jordan Raney] from the USA Olympic Water Polo team,\u201d Flav said in the caption to the post, where he also included photos of himself hugging the Olympian.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe iconic rapper has famously been a big advocate and financial supporter of women\u2019s sports. Ahead of the 2024 Olympics, the rapper offered to sponsor the U.S. women\u2019s water polo team after learning that they were severely underfunded and members of the team were working multiple jobs to make ends meet. In July of that year, Flav officially inked a five-year sponsorship deal with both the women\u2019s and men\u2019s teams.<\/p>\n

\n\tAfter this year\u2019s Winter Olympics, Flav invited the gold medal-winning U.S. women\u2019s Olympic hockey team to party with him in Vegas after Donald Trump made a dismissive joke about inviting the women to the White House in a conversation with the men\u2019s team. He also joined the U.S. bobsled and skeleton teams at the Winter Olympics as their official hype man<\/a>.<\/p>\n
