We need unified Iowa HS football hashtags

Many Iowa media outlets have agreed on using the Twitter hashtag “iahsfb” when covering Friday night games live. By using this tag, one can follow updates on games across the state. (Following football games like this is one of the few redeeming features of Twitter.)

However, there are at least two prominent dissenters. KWWL is using its own tag “#kwwlfnf“, which is where many of the North Tama vs. Aplington-Parkersburg tweets ended up, while KCRG is using “#kcrgfnl“.

I know the two TV stations may not like using a tag that isn’t “theirs”, but it would make following games in Iowa easier if they joined the party. In addition, it would increase the prominence of the “#iahsfb” tag.
