[@KristinaKage]

But did he go to Prom?

[@af31ns]

The way this has been played up in the media, I thought there would be a lot more people there to meet him. I'm disappointed, and I wonder if he was as well.

[@jskelly1979]

So true, no one showed up despite everyone supposedly begging for him to be there. Reminded me of Trump's inauguration!

[@PlottingTheDownfall]

i was told it was limited to those helping for his charity... most of the students were prepping for prom, which Kevin wasn't able to go to.
