A New York man who ran on to the playing area at Citi Field during the All-Star game faces up to a year in jail and a $1,000 fine. The suspect, 18-year-old Dylan McCue-Masone is charged with interfering with a professional sporting event. He has pleaded not guilty.

McCue-Masone allegedly ran on to the field as a result of a Twitter dare. It is said that he initiated a dare to run onto the field if he received 1,000 responses to his tweet.

Hopefully, if he is convicted, each responder will chip in $1 to help pay his fine. A jail visit would be nice too.

Peer pressure has always been a factor in being tempted to do the wrong thing. Modern technology gives more opportunities to be influenced by others, for good or for bad.
