<p>Okay guys. I really need your help. I have a certain bucket list of things I want to do before I die and the one I’m about to tell you about it one of them.</p>
<p>I want to field run at a professional game.</p>
<p>Even though the fans love it and brings them even more money, I know I will get in trouble.</p>
<p>I want to do this before I turn 18 because after that I would face serious punishment.</p>
<p>Now I know for sure that I will be banned from the stadium and most likely given a fine. I could care less about getting banned and I would pay back the fine from a job.</p>
<p>My biggest fear is that colleges will deny me because of this one thing.</p>
<p>I am a great student, but if colleges could possibly deny me because of this one thing would stop me from even trying it.</p>
<p>Please don’t tell me not to do it because it’s stupid. I know that it is. Just give me a straight answer. If I apply for college and they see that I did a field run, would they most likely deny me?</p>
<p>This is a serious question so any help would be great!</p>
<p>You would have to report being arrested and most likely convicted of a Class B misdemeanor. It would pretty-much eliminate student loan eligibility.</p>
<p>A guy who ran onto Citi Field was just fined $5000 and 100 hours of community service. A year in jail is suspended, meaning if he has any other arrest he will serve time. </p>
<p>At 17 you might be charged as an adult if the DA chooses to do so.</p>
<p>It would follow you for the rest of your life. </p>
<p>Even if a record supposedly has been expunged, it still may show up on a background check. Do you ever plan to work in a field that requires a license (medicine, law, teaching, insurance sales, cosmetology, etc.) or for a company that requires a background check (including all banks and lots of retail and fast food organizations)?</p>
<p>A college would question your judgment and easily could decide to admit someone else.</p>
<p>It would absolutely impact your chances of admission to do something this stupid and illegal-it shows questionable judgment to think that your desire to do it trumps the law.
However, running on the field with other fans happens after lots of football games, and it is fun, acceptable and legal when allowed…look for those opportunities.</p>
