Australian Rules Football Umpire Dresses Up As Osama Bin Laden, Gets Suspended
An Australian Rules umpire has been suspended for dressing up as Osama bin Laden at an end-of-season function, the sport's governing body said Monday. Leigh Haussen will not be allowed to officiate during round one of the 2025 season as punishment after attending a restaurant as the mastermind of the September 11 terrorist attacks. The theme of the function, in a private room at the venue in September, was "characters from the 2000s".
