That’s a funny looking flag.
This thought must have run through more than a few minds when an unusual object was hurled on to the field in the New England Patriots’ 41-25 victory over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday evening.
The Patriots went 7-1 at divisional rivals Buffalo but after the high-scoring game, the only thing on reporters’ lips after the game was a flesh-coloured dildo.
Wait, that didn’t come out right.
The marital aid, complete with faux testicles, bounced near the end zone in the third quarter and this fan-captured footage recorded the whole glorious event.
We know you’re simply dying to see what the dildo looks like from the angle of the brave thrower, well here you go.

The players most definitely noticed the addition to the action.
“I saw that. I thought it was a flag,” Bills linebacker Zac Brown told Postmedia. “I said to myself, ‘What the hell are they throwing a flag on? And I looked.
“No, it was a dildo.”
A PR person from the Patriots tried to stop Rob Gronkowski from commenting, but not before he got out a cheeky: “I think that was for the Bills.”
As for quarterback Tom Brady, he had perhaps the funniest response of the lot.
“Only in Buffalo,” he said.
We hope Sky Sports reporter Alan Irvine wasn’t watching as he would have been hit with an awful flashback of literally the worst moment of his life.
