Footy Finals Weekend Not A Good One for Nicole Kidman

Well this past weekend was the big footy weekend of the year for Australia with both their rugby and Australian Rules Football finals this week.  I watched the Aussie Rules final between Geelong and Port Adelaide and it ended up being the biggest Aussie Rules blowout I have ever seen with Geelong winning by over a hundred points.  Than the Melbourne Storm went on to win the rugby final.  So here in Victoria everyone has had a great sporting weekend with two Victorian teams winning each final. 

However, there is one famous couple who did not have such a good weekend:

STAR pairing Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban put Telstra Stadium officials off-side with their ridiculous demands to attend the grand final.

Kidman’s management team phoned the NRL earlier this week and asked for tickets to last night’s sell-out.

The NRL were happy to oblige, putting the Kidman camp in touch with Telstra Stadium officials.

The Hollywood stars refused 10 free tickets on the halfway line – instead demanding a private box. Telstra officials politely told the Kidman camp they might be better off watching it at home. [Daily Telegraph]

I love that the stadium blew them off with their ridiculous demands.  They should have been happy with halfway line seats especially when they are free.  I know I would have been.
