When asked about the event and his legacy, Nelson told People, “I have been so fortunate this far that I just hope for things to continue the way they are. I think it would be too much to ask for anything more than what I already have experienced.”

A huge part of Nelson’s legacy includes his love of weed which led him to form a lasting relationship with Snoop Dogg. “I love Snoop. He and I are great friends — have been forever. It was a lot of fun just hanging out and getting to do some things — Snoop and I,” Nelson told the outlet.
