Any of you cats in Tucson catch this last night?
Comcast customers in Tuscon got an eye-popping 30 seconds of pornographic material during the Super Bowl last night. Shortly after Arizona Cardinal Larry Fitzgerald caught a toss from quarterback Kurt Warner to take the lead against Pittsburgh, the Super Bowl feed paused and dissolved into a scene featuring full frontal male nudity from the adult channel Club Jenna.

Really. This actually happened. Forget a Janet Jackson nipple slip. This is way past that. It’s all over the web. Since I live in nice, safe, pro-family Phoenix, I missed this shit.
The feed originated with NBC local affiliate KVOA in Tucson and traveled via a fiber optic line to the Cox Cable Company, which then relayed the feed through a separate line to Comcast. Both KVOA and Cox say the problem lies with Comcast, as the KVOA feed was porn-free when it left the station, and Cox did not receive any complaints from its customers.
Just hours after the big game finished, Comcast customers who caught the Super Bowl surprise on their digital video recorders were posting the incident all over the web.
Yep. God Bless them internets. Safe for work version of the vid below.

Glad that didn’t happen after every big Larry Fitzgerald play in the Panthers game. Would have missed a lot of football.

I like all the commentary about the “surprise” and how they thought it was just a ‘cheesy’ commercial. Like the NFL is going to allow a commercial where someone is telling the girl to “just slap his penis through his pants”. What total fucking morons!

The more I think about it, that was probably one of the best superbowls in recent years.
