Twitter rejects blue check mark verification for former Viking, Minnesota Supreme Court Justice Alan Page

A spot in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, a seat on Minnesota's highest court and a shiny gold medal symbolizing the nation's highest civilian honor.

Apparently Alan Page needs to work a little bit harder to achieve the "notability" that Twitter requires before it bestows one of its coveted blue check marks signaling verification.

Page said Thursday he was taken aback after learning that Twitter rejected his application for the lofty status.

"This account will not be verified at this time because the evidence provided did not meet our criteria for notability," the e-mail sent Wednesday.
