In 2010, Eric became the AFL team's Number One Ticket Holder after travelling to Melbourne regularly during game season.
His love for St Kilda FC is well-publicised, and his passion for the team has popped up in some very surprising places.
The club was featured in the Adam Sandler film Funny People, in which Eric co-starred.

In a hilarious scene, Eric's character explains Australian Rules Football with a lot of swearing while Sandler and Seth Rogan's character look perplexed.
Bana's promotion of the film in 2009, notably on NBC's The Late Show with Jimmy Fallon, saw him praise the Saints as he taught host Jimmy Fallon about AFL.
Eric passionately discussed the differences between American and Australian football during a November 2018 interview with US outlet Newsday.

His love for St Kilda FC is well-publicised, and his passion for the team has popped up in some very surprising places.
'I used to struggle with your game, I actually really enjoy watching it now. I think both sides could learn a bit from each other,' he began.
Eric said the one thing he didn't understand about American football is why there wasn't more involvement with the crowd.
'We do a lot of close-ups of our crowd. That's part of the game. I always feel weird when I watch an American sport - there's a crowd there, so why aren't we seeing them? It's weird. It sort of dehumanises it,' he added.
