EASTON, Pa. — The mayor of Bethlehem had to be ejected from a wrestling tournament after criticizing calls made by mat officials during the District 11 Class AAA wrestling championships at Liberty High School.

The Express-Times of Easton reports Bethlehem Mayor John Callahan was asked to leave Saturday night after loudly objecting to calls made during the 220-pound championship match. Callahan’s son John, who wrestles for Freedom High School, earlier placed fourth in the 195-pound weight class.

Callahan, a second-term mayor running for Northampton County executive, wrote on his Twitter account: “Pretty sad when a wrestling fan can’t express displeasure about a call.”
