There’s nothing worse than making a concerted effort to ensure you look presentable for the kind of event where you need to rock a shirt with buttons or pants that require a belt only to realize you overlooked a glaring issue with your outfit at a time when there’s really nothing you can do about it.
Those slip-ups can come in a variety of shapes and forms, ranging from a stain you failed to notice to a tear you’ll spend the entire day or evening trying to conceal. However, you can take some solace in knowing those faux pas probably won’t be broadcasted to millions of people who can have some fun at your expense.
Unfortunately, that was not the case for hockey reporter Shannon Hogan on Tuesday night.
Islanders reporter Shannon Hogan wore an inadvertently inappropriate necklace during a broadcast but dealt with the fallout like the pro she is
Hogan currently covers the New York Islanders for MSG Network and was in the studio to break things down when the team faced off against the Sharks at home on Tuesday night. The outfit she wore during the pregame show included a necklace that she didn’t really give much thought to when she opted to put it on, but that all changed after more than a few fans noticed it shared some similarities with a certain part of the male anatomy.

That necklace was nowhere to be found when Hogan reappeared for the first intermission, and she let everyone know she realized how it could’ve been, um, misinterpreted in a tweet where she revealed it was a gift from her mother (who seemed to find the “incident” as amusing as she did).
You guys, I had no clue with the necklace! Never even thought of it. My mom gave it to me as a gift and now we are both cracking up. Hope ya had a good giggle haha. #wardrobechange

On Wednesday morning, Hogan also said she spent some time auditing her jewelry collection and has officially decided to stick with another necklace for the rest of the season.
Well played.
