Police in Boston said Dennis Harrison pulled the fire alarm at the Logan Airport Hilton at 3:40 a.m. Sunday, before the AFC Championship game in Foxborough, WCVB-TV reports.

Harrison, who according to prosecutors was drunk, was arrested near the hotel. He appeared in court on Monday and pleaded not guilty to charges including disorderly conduct and disturbing the peace, according to WCVB-TV.

The New England Patriots defeated the Steelers 36-17 on Sunday, earning a spot in Super Bowl LI.
