An Irish tenor has been banned from singing ‘God Bless America’ at an important Yankees baseball game after telling an antisemitic joke.
Ronan Tynan, who was born in Kilkenny, made his name singing patriotic songs at American sports events, and sang ‘Ave Maria’ at the funeral of Ronald Reagan.
But Mr Tynan’s career took a nosedive after he made an antisemitic joke to a Jewish doctor.
Mr Tynan bumped into an estate agent showing the doctor around a apartment in his block.
