Hashtag Alternatives For College Football Fields
Earlier this week, the NCAA banned the use of hashtags on football fields. Because, you know, hashtags on football fields is the biggest problem facing the NCAA.
Many schools have already adopted this unique branding opportunity and will now have to come up with something new. That’s why we’re here. Well that, and to make sports jokes. But we’re primarily here to come up with new unique branding opportunities.
We’re helping schools, such as Mississippi State (the first school to paint a Twitter hashtag on their field), with ways to work around the NCAA’s new rule:
• • •
Clearly, the next step is to just type out the word hashtag followed by whatever word you want hashtagged. What’s the NCAA going to do then? Ban words?
• • •
Fine, no hashtags, NCAA. Instead, we’ll just paint a Twitter username on the field.
• • •
This rule provides a great opportunity to plug that idle Google+ page you’ve been meaning to update.
• • •
If you can’t have hashtags, why not plug a favorite website of yours? Oh… Would you look at that? Thank you!
• • •
Everyone’s always looking to grow their Facebook page. And we all probably have a few years before the NCAA realizes what Facebook is.
• • •
The only person more powerful than NCAA President Mark Emmert is Tom from MySpace.
