“I had two small shots of tequila,’’ the Boss told U.S. Magistrate Judge Anthony R. Mautone, who then assessed $540 in fines and penalties on the rock icon.
Mautone asked Springsteen how much time he needed to pay the fines.
“I think I can pay that immediately,’’ Springsteen said, smiling.
Questioned during a Zoom hearing by his attorney, Mitchell Ansell, Springsteen, dressed in a dark blazer, dark sweater and button-down shirt, said he consumed the shots around 4 p.m. on Nov. 14 by the lighthouse keeper’s property on Sandy Hook in the Gateway National Recreation Area.
