ESPN apologized Monday night after video of a woman exposing her breast on Bourbon Street in New Orleans made its way into the network's broadcast of the Sugar Bowl. 

According to the Associated Press, the footage was aired coming out of commercial during the second half of Washington's 37-31 victory over Texas in the semifinal game of the CFP at Caesars Superdome. 

The clip showed people wandering down Bourbon Street, as well as a woman pulling down her top to expose her breast. 

“We regret that this happened and apologize that the video aired in the telecast,” ESPN’s Bill Hofheimer said in a statement to The Associated Press.

The woman's breast aired for roughly a second and the woman in the shot appeared to be hoping to procure beads from an onlooker on a balcony above.
