Actress Olivia Munn and NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers were in the crowd in Los Angeles on Thursday night, rooting on the Wisconsin Badgers to the Elite Eight and, they hope, a second-straight berth in the Final Four.
It was a great game a classic weeknight Sweet 16 battle but once it became clear Wisconsin would prevail over North Carolina, Modgers, no, Munndgers, no, Oliviaaron, no, Aarlivia thats it, thats the celebrity couple nickname were cheering like they were lifelong Wisconsin fans who bleed red, white and some sort of cheese.
Rodgers has been a big Wisconsin basketball backer for years. He followed the team to the Final Four last year and recently joked that he wants a 1-on-1 game against Badgers star Sam Dekker. That sounds like a great idea for a guy playing on a $110 million contract, but I enjoy the desire and moxie nonetheless.
And, sorry Olivia and a mandate of American men, but Ms. Munn is only the second most interesting thing about that picture above. I love LOVE that the sports/Hollywood power couple is sitting directly next to ESPN golf analyst and Wisconsin super-fan, Madison native Andy North. I wonder if Andy ever whispers two U.S. Opens is better than one Super Bowl. I totally would.
Rodgers is a big Badgers fan due to his employment in the State and Munn is a big Badgers fan presumably because shes dating a guy employed in the state. But North is a true diehard and you always have to respect the diehard, except the fifth one A Good Day to Die Hard was just horrible.
