General News Hollywood star Brendan Fraser, a self-confessed Aussie Rules Footy fan, was at a recent AFL match between Hawthorn and Carlton at the Telstra Dome.

Fraser was in Melbourne promoting the new movie from "The Mummy" series and was one of at least a dozen celebrities on hand to watch the shootout for the Coleman Medal between Lance "Buddy" Franklin and Brendan Fevola in front of a near capacity crowd. Not only that, but he would have also witnessed the International Cup teams parade at half time.

Fraser was interviewed during the television coverage of the match and the subject of the Herald Sun article "Brendan Fraser at AFL match in Melbourne".
