15 Things Grant Traylor could tweet about until 12:15 p.m. on Tuesday, just for fun

by:Ally Tucker05/13/13
Grant Traylor, the lone media member covering the Andrew Wiggins decision on Tuesday afternoon, has already grown in popularity over night. Traylor went from under 1,500 Twitter followers to 9,379 Twitter followers in just one night. I expect that number to grow between now and Tuesday at 12:15 p.m. when Wiggins makes his announcement. Traylor sent out a tweet about 30 minutes after the rush when his name was revealed. The Tweet warned that he would be tweeting mostly about Marshall women's softball for the rest of the night. After all, he's a journalist from the Huntington, West Virginia area. Any other day, and most of his followers would be concerned with such information. Now, Traylor has inherited a whole new batch of followers-- in particular, a mass of Kentucky fans. The national media, fans of both teams, fans of college basketball in general, etc. will all be on Traylor in less than 24 hours. With that said, what if he messed with us and really put us to the test until Tuesday at 12:15 p.m.? Just how much other stuff could Grant Traylor tweet about in the meantime before the announcement, just to poke at all of his new followers a bit? If I were him, the idea would certainly be tempting, if for no other reason than for entertainment purposes.
