On Sunday in Australia, the South Sydney Rabbitohs won the National Rugby League championship, prompting Channel 9 to report live from the scene of one major victory party.
Sounds like a rollicking good time, doesn’t it? You have no idea.
In the following video, an unidentified fan drops his pants in the background of reporter Tom Steinfort’s live segment, dangling his penis for all to see. For multiple seconds.
Steinfort was unaware of the X-rated incident as he reported, but later learned what went down and Tweeted an apology.
“Soooooo, the perils of live TV…..apologies for that nudity in my live cross just then,” he wrote, later joking:
“total balls up, bloke made a cock of himself, really dropped the ball… wonder if that Bunnies fan has copped a call from his mum yet?”
In the fan’s defense, it was a rather historic victory: it marked the South Sydney Rabbitohs’ first grand final win in 43 years.
So at least he sort of had a somewhat reasonable excuse for dropping trau, at least when compared to these 7 stars who have sent out photos of their penis.
