Rocky Gets Busted

February 20th, 2007

Sylvester Stallone didn’t get quite the wamr reception he was expecting from the folks down under. Sly was in Australia to attend the premiere of his latest flick “Rocky Balboa” when he was busted by customs cops at the Sydney airport. At the time of the oops Sly told everyone it was just a “misunderstanding.” But then they showed up to search his hotel room and his plane. Oops again.

E! News reports:

As officials stopped by the Park Hyatt hotel to issue the actor a summons to answer charges on the prohibited substances, Stallone and his cohorts were allegedly seen tossing something out of the windows of their hotel room. A search of the room allegedly resulted in additional evidence, per the Telegraph.

A full sweep of his private plane ensued, though the actor was cleared to leave the country later in the day as the investigation proceeds.

The going rumor is that Sly was busted for possession of illegal bodybuilding substances. Well, duh. The guy is like 80 years old and he’s trying to be a boxer. This guy is probably so full of growth hormones and horse steroids that he fired his physician and now travels with a personal veterinarian instead.
