This story teaches you at least two valuable life lessons. Never take a bet you might later regret. And never underestimate the power of social media.
SEE ALSO: The I Would Rather Kill Youinternet is deathly afraid of this year's White House Christmas decorationsKelsey Hall, a 20-year-old student from the University of Alabama, posted on Twitter a pic of herself while wearing a Christmas tree costume and challenged Twitter to give her 1,000 retweets and she'd wear it for the rest of the semester:
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
But as the retweets trickled in, she soon regretted it:
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
People got back on Twitter just to retweet her:
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
Calls to retweet her multiplied over the hours and Kelsey started to get nervous:
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
Even Twitter official account weighed in:
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
Kelsey was now resigned to taking up the challenge:
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
The tweet got more than 15,000 retweets, and she had to follow through:
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
I mean, seriously, look at her face:
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
Closer...
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
This is the face of regret. Lesson learned.
