A Jesus look-alike kicked out of a darts tournament because sports authorities said he was distracting the other players too much after spectators starting chanting for the Jesus look-alike player.
"Stand up if you love Jesus!" around 4,000 fans started chanting. As a result, the situation got so out of control that security personnel escorted Nathan Grindal out of the event, as he was seen as a distraction to the darts players.
Grindal -- who has long hair and a beard, making him look superficially like popular representations of Jesus Christ -- was attending the Cash Converters Players' Championship tournament when the crowd turned on him.
"I didn't go to the darts dressed as Jesus - I went as me," he told The Daily Mail. "It was all very weird and distressing. I didn't break down crying but I did get emotionally distraught.

"They were bullying me and picking on me, saying that I was someone else," he added. "It would have been okay if the security hadn't made a fuss getting me out of the arena. I was evicted for something I have no control over. I felt discriminated against."
