Photos that popped up on Facebook were leaked to a sports blog, according to KTVK-TV in Dallas.

Some fans at the Cowboy's game against the Seahawks Sunday thought the costume was in poor taste.

Assuming you would hold yourself up to a little bit higher standards, especially playing for the Cowboys, said Richard Vasquez. Not much I can say about that one. It speaks for itself.

Other fans thought it was all in good fun.

If she wasn't a Dallas cheerleader would it really matter? It's Halloween, you know. you get to go how you want to go says fan Laura Pyhrr.

No one from the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders or the team would officially comment, but a team spokesman told us the team is aware of the situation and addressing it internally.
