Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le'veon Bell may not be visiting Waukesha after all. After accepting an invite to a prom at Waukesha West High School over Twitter this week, school administrators are saying Bell would be violating school rules by attending.

"Based on school policies and rules, and no-exception prom attendance rules, Mr. Bell would not be able to attend our West High School prom dance," Waukesha superintendent Todd Gray said in an email to TODAY'S TMJ4 Wednesday.

"No permission was requested or provided prior to any student communications to Mr. Bell regarding his invitation to attend the West High School prom. As of today, we do not have any formal prom attendance request, as required, for non-West attendee's."

Bell had previously accepted the invitation from Waukesha West's Ava Tarantino. The family has not made a request for permission at this time.
