Bell can't take fan to prom because he's too old, has DUI on record
Le'Veon Bell won't get to honor his Twitter bet after all.
The Pittsburgh Steelers running back agreed to accompany Wisconsin teen Ava Tarantino to her prom after her invitation got more than 600 retweets, but the Waukesha School District has put a stop to it.
The district has banned Bell from attending because he's over 19 and was arrested for driving under the influence and possession of marijuana, according to Annysa Johnson of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
"You can Google Mr. Bell," spokeswoman Terry Schuster said. "We have to be equitable in the way we treat our students. We don't even know if this is a real commitment."
Bell will be able to attend the prom's opening ceremonies, just not the dance itself.
