THE world’s fastest man Usain Bolt was a surprise guest at the Virgin Australia AFL party in Melbourne last night.

Bolt and his four man entourage appeared at the event just before 10pm and were escorted to a private area upstairs at Ms Collins, a bar on Collins St, by security.

Bolt posed for a picture with the 2014 premiership cup, alongside Jonathan Brown and AFL CEO Gillon McLachlan.

The Jamaican, here to attend Saturday’s Grand Final between Hawthorn and Sydney, was also surrounded by the likes of Billy Brownless and Michael Voss in the closed-off area.

Bolt then mingled with the crowd and happily obliged when asked for photos. He also posted a picture on social media of his travelling group going go-karting.

Also among the crowd at Ms Collins were Peter Siddle and Anna Weatherlake, Olivia Wells, Daniel MacPherson, Monika Clarke and Ed Lower, Travis Cloke, Tyson Goldsack, Nathan Fyfe, Olympia Valance, Laurina Fleur and Natalie Hunter.
