Philadelphia Eagles Evict Businessman George Norcross for Displaying Israeli Flag at Game
Breaking News
Controversy has erupted between the Philadelphia Eagles and South Jersey businessman George Norcross after he was evicted from a game for displaying an Israeli flag.
The Eagles say that banners are prohibited at Lincoln Financial Field, but Norcross claims that he was simply trying to show his support for Israel.
Norcross, a powerful Democratic political boss in New Jersey, was removed from the game by security after he was confronted by fans who objected to his flag.
The incident has sparked a debate about the freedom of speech and the rights of spectators at sporting events.
The Eagles have released a statement saying that they "respect the rights of all fans to express their views, but we must enforce our policy of prohibiting banners at Lincoln Financial Field."
Norcross has said that he is considering legal action against the Eagles.
