NJ Democratic power broker George Norcross, who was forcibly removed from a Philadelphia Eagles game on Sunday after displaying a US-Israeli flag, is considering legal action against the team, according to the New York Post.

The incident occurred at Lincoln Financial Field, where Norcross, a 67-year-old insurance executive and former co-owner of the Philadelphia Inquirer, was watching the Eagles play against the Dallas Cowboys. Video footage captured Norcross being accosted by security officers and subsequently led away following a confrontation.

In a statement, Norcross claimed that he was "forcibly removed and assaulted" by non-police security staff for refusing to take down the 3'x5' American and Israeli flag he had hung from his luxury suite. He asserted that displaying the flag was his way of making an important statement as a strong supporter of Israel, showing solidarity with the country that had recently been attacked by the terrorist group Hamas.

Norcross expressed his dissatisfaction with the Eagles and the NFL, questioning why they deemed the US-Israeli flag inappropriate or indecent. He highlighted previous instances where the team had taken a stance on civil justice issues and world conflicts, including supporting Ukraine. Norcross suggested that he may sue the Eagles, the NFL, and the security company involved in the incident.

The Eagles responded to the incident by stating that Norcross' removal from the stadium was not caused by the content of his sign. The team clarified that their stadium policies prohibited signage with non-game messaging being hung from a suite, and that Norcross was repeatedly asked to remove the sign before becoming verbally and physically abusive. The team asserted that Norcross' ejection was a result of his abusive behavior towards stadium staff members in violation of stadium policy.

The Eagles also reaffirmed their condemnation of the terrorist attacks carried out by Hamas on October 7th in Israel. They mentioned that their stance against abusive behavior and their commitment to maintaining a safe and inclusive environment at the stadium led to Norcross' escort out of the premises.

A stadium official confirmed that flags have long been prohibited at the stadium under a longstanding policy. According to Lincoln Financial Field's policy on signs and banners, anything potentially offensive or indecent, not related to the event, capable of blocking views, or deemed dangerous or inappropriate by the Eagles is prohibited, and individuals displaying such items may be removed.

As Norcross contemplates legal action, it remains to be seen how this incident will unfold and whether it will impact the ongoing discussions surrounding the display of flags and messaging at sporting events.
