Georgia paid Ludacris in cash, condoms, booze for spring game performance

Ludacris certainly got some fine "Southern Hospitality" this past weekend, as the Georgia athletic department "Rolled Out" the red carpet for the Atlanta rapper.

After the Bulldogs failed to secure an act for a pregame concert to their spring game on "Saturday," Ludacris reached out to save the day for the SEC school.

The cost of his services? A reported $65,000, dinner in a hospitality suite for at least 10 people, and a dressing room stocked with snacks, T-shirts, vodka, cognac, wine, tequila, and of course, a box of condoms, according to Jason Butt of The Telegraph.

The day was certainly a "Money Maker" for the rapper-turned-actor, as he received the payment for just 15 minutes of work. At a rate of $260,000 per hour, that type of work has to be the answer to the question, "What's Your Fantasy?"

The countdown to the season is on, when the fans can see if Ludacris' performance helps spur the Bulldogs to the "Number One Spot" in Kirby Smart's first season as coach.
