Rehmar also asked an airport employee if he could get on board because he was trying to make his high school reunion.

On Monday a judge in Denver sentenced Rehmar to two years of probation and 100 hours of community service as part of a plea deal. He could also be fined up to $11,000.

 

The judge told Rehmar he seemed to be a "good man, who saved the screwing up for one glorious incident."
