Right after wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald scored a dramatic touchdown for the Arizona Cardinals in Sunday's Super Bowl, some Comcast cable TV customers saw a brief porn clip.
"We were like in shock," said Cardinals fan Alice Soto, 53, who was watching the game with her 11-year-old daughter and 80-year-old mother.
She said the clip was of a man and woman on a sofa. The man unzipped his pants, revealing his genitals.
The clip lasted 5 or 10 seconds, Soto said.
Comcast spokeswoman Tracy Baumgartner confirmed in an Associated Press report that the company's standard feed - but not its high definition one - was interrupted during the Super Bowl. She said engineers were investigating Sunday night.
