Joe Burrow almost had the wrong flagpole on show during the inaugural Fantatics Flag Football Classic.

The Cincinnati Bengals quarterback took part in the event along with multiple other stars from around the league. The event took place at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles. Unfortunately for Burrow, toward the end of the game, he endured a moment he will likely want to forget.
As he was hurtling toward the end zone, one of the opposing team's defenders dove to rip the flag from behind him. In the process, Burrow's entire pants came down, making for a hilarious moment to remember the event by.
Fortunately for everyone, Burrow was wearing spats and a cup underneath his pants. As such, his modesty remained intact, and no one saw anything they weren't supposed to. Nevertheless, it would appear the Burrow was pleased to be part of the event, especially as flag football will become part of the Olympics in 2028.
"I've always wanted to play in the Olympics," Burrow said, via the The Cincinnati Enquirer. "I've never necessarily played an Olympic sport before, so when this got announced, I was pretty excited about it. The opportunity to win a gold medal [is] something that I've thought about — a moment like that — for a long time, since I was a kid. I think it would be something very special."
Joe Burrow Has Lost His Pants Before
Hilariously, this is the second time Joe Burrow has found himself with his pants down while playing football. The first occasion was back in 2019, when Burrow was still suiting up for Louisiana State University. He was facing off against Mississippi State.
In the multiple videos that are available on social media, Burrow can be seen cutting toward the middle of the field with the ball. However, his defender has a tight grip on the back of his pants, pulling them down enough to expose his bare bum to the crowd and the millions of people watching at home.
