Football fan banned for penis stunt
A Dutch football club has banned one of its fans for posing for a photograph with the local mayor with his penis hanging out.
Mayor Wim Deetman did not realise the ADO Den Haag fan was exposing himself when he agreed to have his picture taken with him.
He had just come from a meeting with club directors and gladly posed arm in arm with the fan who was clutching a bottle of beer.
It was only later, when the picture was circulated on the internet, that Mayor Deetman realised he had been set up.
He is now taking legal action against the supporter and is awaiting the judge's verdict, reports the Nu news website.
However, ADO Den Haag has now announced that the fan will no longer be welcome at its stadium.
"To us, the incident is now closed," said chairman Ronald Langenbach.

lol,
While I do not condone this type of behavior, I do believe that it shows just how much politicians are willing to do for a vote, a picture opportunity, and the chance to 'hang out' with their constituents.
