Tweeting for the Hawk
December 8, 2009 3 Comments
The fellas over at Cubscast.com came up with a fun twitter way to promote Andre Dawson for the HOF. Here are the details:
We’re calling on all Cubs fans to post comments that include the special hashtag #Dawson4TheHall to Twitter starting on Tuesday December 8th at 1:20 PM Central Time. Tweets must include the #Dawson4TheHall hashtag in order to be counted, and we also recommend that the #cubs and #mlb tags are included.
The goal, you ask? We want to draw as much attention as possible to Dawson’s bid (his 9th) to become elected to baseball’s Hall of Fame. If enough people send tweets using the #Dawson4TheHall hashtag, it will become a trending topic on Twitter. The timing could work out very well as many beat writers and journalists (some of whom have an actual ballot to cast) will be keeping an eye on Twitter to monitor the winter meetings from Indy that day.
Please tell all the Cubs fans you know! If everyone tells 5 people and so on, this has a good chance of working. Show your support for one of the best Cubs outfielders ever!
Is it snowing in here or am I seeing things? (Both are equally plausible, unfortunately.)
yep, it’s snowing uncle dave.
so much for all the talk of all the wheeling and dealing that was gonna take place at the winter meetings. (hopefully i’m jinxing it)
