Le'Veon Bell agrees to attend prom after losing Twitter bet

Le'Veon Bell is seven years removed from his time as a high school senior in Ohio, but the Pittsburgh Steelers star running back may soon be attending prom all over again.

On Saturday, a young Steelers fan named Ava Tarantino sent a message to Bell on Twitter suggesting that he come to her dance if the social media request garnered 500 retweets. Not only did Bell see the proposition, he responded to Tarantino by raising the stakes to 600 retweets.
