So on a recent visit to another city I was given a pink ticket for public consumption for having an open container of beer. I wasn't drunk (had one beer prior), and wasn't drinking the beer but just had it in my coat pocket and was leaving an open air bar and had walked about a block. Stupid, of course, and definitely not going to happen again, but I wasn't being a nuisance or anything and was respectful with the police officer. I've never had any kind of disciplinary measure/infraction before. The ticket isn't a felony or a misdemeanor, just a violation akin to a parking ticket and I paid a $25 fine.
I'm planning on applying to MD schools this coming cycle and am wondering how this will be looked at and whether I should report it in some way / whether background checkers care about this sort of thing. I think my stats and ECs all look pretty good besides this.
