Zul-Qarnain Kwame Nantambu
Zul-Qarnain Kwame Nantambu, a 41-year-old performer, made headlines after he ran onto the field during the Super Bowl halftime show on February 9, 2023, waving a flag that featured the phrases 'Sudan and Free Gaza.' He was charged with two misdemeanors, including resisting a police officer and disturbing the peace, for his actions that interrupted the performance by rapper Kendrick Lamar. Although detained on the field, he was not initially charged at the time of the incident but later turned himself in to authorities, coordinating with his attorney. The NFL subsequently announced a lifetime ban from league stadiums and events for Nantambu.
