Le'Veon Bell barred from attending Steelers fan's prom

Le’Veon Bell may not be going to the prom after all.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports the the running back’s highly publicized date with a Steelers fan in Wisconsin, agreed to via Twitter over the weekend, is being complicated by officials at the fan’s school district. And they’re citing Bell’s 2014 arrest on marijuana possession and DUI charges as justification.

Waukesha School District spokeswoman Terry Schuster said Bell could attend the public events with 17-year-old Waukesha West junior Ava Tarantino, but she said district policy bars from the dance guests who have been involved in drug, alcohol or violent criminal incidents.
